[Pkg-sympa-devel] Bug#855199: sympa web interface broken with jquery v3

[Ander Punnar]

Package: sympa
Version: 6.2.16~dfsg-2
Severity: important

sympa upstream ships with jquery v1.11.1, but next stable stretch ships
v3.1.1-2, which breaks web interface (unable to use hover menus).

please add libjs-jquery-migrate-1 into dependencies and patch
head_javascript.tt2 until upstream migrates to newer jquery.

also, quick workaround:

# apt-get install javascript-common libjs-jquery-migrate-1
# service apache2 reload
# cd /etc/sympa/web_tt2
# cp /usr/share/sympa/default/web_tt2/head_javascript.tt2 .
# vim /usr/share/sympa/default/web_tt2/head_javascript.tt2
# diff -u /usr/share/sympa/default/web_tt2/head_javascript.tt2 head_javascript.tt2
