To get the new version of ganglia-web into Debian we also need to get
three new JavaScript libraries packaged, it doesn't look hard but I
simply haven't had time to do them:


https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/cubism/1.6.0/cubism.v1.min.js
https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/protovis/3.3.1/protovis.min.js
https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jstree/3.2.1/jstree.min.js

I know of several people looking to get more involved in Debian who
could be mentored to do these packages as their first uploads.

Once that is done, we also need to patch upstream to make it use local
versions in a convenient way (I can commit upstream if somebody makes a
pull request)


Whoever does the next upload may also want to review other bugs:


https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=ganglia-web

and consider whether any of them are essential to fix.

Below is a more thorough summary of dependencies from analysis I did in
October last year.

Daniel
