Missing _web.js from the package

Asked by Massimiliano Girardi

In noble I can see from here: https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/amd64/python3-urwid/filelist that the package is missing the `_web.js` file. This (could) be causing this problem https://launchpadlibrarian.net/709499038/buildlog_ubuntu-noble-amd64.checkbox-ng_3.3.0~dev88~ubuntu24.04.1_BUILDING.txt.gz because the module is somehow (It is still unclear to me how) imported and once it is imported, it tries to read that file that is not included. The MANIFEST.in file in the urwid repository is missing the inclusion of this file. Could this be causing this problem? Am I missing something here?

If you look at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/urwid you can see that the version numbers in Ubuntu do not contain the string "ubuntu". This indicates that the packages have been copied from Debian without Ubuntu-specific modification.

If you are sure that there is a file missing in the package, then this should be reported to Debian, and when Debian solves the problem, Ubuntu will follow suit.
