[Pkg-javascript-devel] jquery-ui-rails and jquery-ui versions

[Pirate Praveen]

Hi,

I'm trying to package jquey-ui-rails and ran into jquery-ui version
conflicts. jquery-ui-rails embeds a version of jquery-ui and easiest
option would be to ship jquery-ui-rails as is, but it would mean
duplication of libjs-jquery-ui package. So I thought of depending on
libjs-jquery-ui package for ruby-jquery-ui-rails but the versions are
differet.

jquery-ui-rails has jquery-ui version 1.10.3 (older versions of
jquery-ui-rails has only 1.10.0)
libjs-jquery-ui is 1.10.1
jquery-ui latest upstream is 1.10.4

To keep ruby-jquery-ui-rails in a sane position,

1. jquery-ui-rails and libjs-jquery-ui maintainers have to agree to be in sync.

Other option is to

2. just use the version provided by libjs-jquery-ui for
ruby-jquery-ui-rails but it may break applications if there are
incompatible changes. We can add +jqueryui1.10.1 to debian's version.

I'm leaning towards option 2. What do you suggest?
