Package: lintian Version: 2.5.2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainers,
Please stop warning about jquery.js as embedded by Doxygen. I evaluated all options at fixing this issue in Doxygen and conclude that a fix is infeasible and its usefulness is limited. The issue and the problems about fixing it are documented in /usr/share/doc/doxygen/README.jquery (in the doxygen package >= jessie). Even if there were a security issue in jquery, it will likely not affect any user via Doxygen. For detection I suggest to look for doxygen.png and doxygen.css. If both are present, the jquery warning should be suppressed. Note that some maintainers have started replacing jquery.js in response to the lintian tag. Unfortunately what is named jquery.js does not only contain jquery. Thus some generated documentation is now broken. I would like lintian to error out if jquery.js of Doxygen-generated documentation is a symbolic link to the jquery package. Do you need a separate bug number for this?
