Hi,
Since there is already NodeJs in Fedora, shouldn't be the JavaScript
exception [1] revisited? There are JavaScript libraries reviews, such
as CofeeScript [2], already ongoing. However, there is also it copy
of CoffeeScript in rubygem-coffee-script-source. I know I am going to
make my life harder, on the other hand, this is just system library
and should not be duplicated.
The exception shouldn't need revisiting (things that run on NodeJS should
not be covered by the exception under the current guidelines) "At this time
JavaScript intended to be served to a web browser on another computer is
specifically exempted from this but this will likely change in the future."
<= that exception does not cover JavaScript that runs on the local
computer.
You are partially right. Nevertheless, in time we did review of
rubygem-coffee-script-source, there was no need to unbundle the
coffeescript.js from the package IMO, since there were no other place
where to put it anyway. There was no other package which would provide
it. There was no easy way how to execute it, etc. But now, it should be
changed. There might be more packages like this.
