[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#754533: libjs-pdf: please provide a minified version of compatibility.js

[Johannes Schauer]

Package: libjs-pdf
Version: 1.0.277-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'm packaging pdf2htmlEX (ITP #754460) and it makes use of
compatibility.js from PDF.js. Optionally it also makes use of
compatibility.min.js. Either is embedded into the HTML files it
produces. Since it's nicer to embed the minified javascript, the
packaging currently ships a minified version of compatibility.js from
libjs-pdf. This is suboptimal since it might mean that at some point in
the feature, libjs-pdf ships a minified version of an older
compatibility.js than is provided by libjs-pdf and has to be rebuilt.

Would you consider also shipping a minified version of compatibility.js
in the libjs-pdf package?

If yes, should I create a patch implementing that functionality?

Thank you for your consideration!

cheers, josch
