Ubuntu
jquery package

Missing symbolic link (or change documentation)

Asked by Kevin Cole

* On my system, this is in libjs-jquery (specifically 1.3.3-2ubuntu1 on Lucid). I can find no Canonical-supported package named jquery.

The file /usr/share/doc/libjs-jquery/README.Debian says:

| In order to make use of jquery in your html, include the following lines in
| your html header:
|
| <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"
| src="/javascript/jquery/jquery.js"></script>

However, the /javascript does not live under /var/www as either an actual directory or a link.

Oops. Never mind. My mistake. (I see the linkage is from javascript-common and in the /etc/apache2 configuration.)

The package javascript-common creates /usr/share/javascript and /etc/javascript-common/javascript-common.conf which aliases /javascript to /usr/share/javascript. It then places a link in /etc/apache2/conf.d which points to the configuration file.
