Well, yes, that's correct. I considered it a good idea to strip the
files that are not needed in the final package and to be really sure
that these will not be used from the upstream source tarball via
Files-Excluded. The additional advantage is that I do not need to
craft several copyright statements for stuff that's not used anyway.

Yes, I'm sure and I need the symlink definitely.

So may be dh_linktrees is not the correct tool for me. I just want it
to create symlinks and may be the best idea is to just use dh_link
instead and add the libjs-dependencies manually.
Kind regards
