[Pkg-javascript-devel] beware of simple tasks

Please beware that some packages "missing" some simple tasks may have 
good reason for that.

As a concrete example, source package jsbundle-web-interfaces "lack" a 
Homepage in control file, and an Upstream-Name in copyright file - both 
because that is nonsense for a bundle-only package - none of its 
components is semantically the "main" one despite technically one of 
them need to be treated as such.

If in doubt, ask those who have worked on the package before - they 
might know what they were doing (just might - I am not saying mistakes 
are never made).


Kind regards,

 - Jonas
