Could you explain what you have in mind? > They don't package webapps. In OpenStack, every package requirement upstream is installed via pip install. OpenStack Dashboard is written in Django. Django uses the concept of putting all static files within a app. A django included script walks through all installed apps and pulls static files into one defined static assets dir. XStatic-foo packages solve two issues here: provide pip packaging of JavaScript libs (thus making them installable in a test enviroment) and also make those Javascript files relocatable in the file system. This way, I can place them conforming to Web Assets Feature in %{_jsdir} and still have the mapping via python-XStatic.
