Thanks for the reply. I have checked the list above, and only galette
depends on a specific version of libjs-jquery-cookie, in this case (>= 8).

I guess the current version numbering was chosen because the source
package jquery-goodies contains many different libraries, with a variety
of upstream version numbers. Would it be a lot more work to create a
source package for each of the 23 binary packages?

Cheers!
