Hi Paul, Sorry for the late reply. I'm not subscribed to pkg-javascript@ so I don't notice these things, I only notice via my QA page. (Possibly I should remove myself from Uploaders, since I don't intend to maintain this in the future, as far as I can avoid doing so.)

The new version [1] does not contain any jquery.ui.* files, that is what the upstream distribution zip chose for this version. I didn't do this. The old version [2] contains both jquery-ui.css as well as jquery.ui.all.css. The former seems to be an amalgated single-file version of the theme, the latter @imports the separate files when loaded. It looks like upstream has dropped support for this type of usage in the new version, though that was what the old README.Debian recommended. This is a very unfortunate situation but I don't think it would be appropriate for Debian to "put back in" the old feature that upstream dropped. I hope this kind of crappy situation would be an incentive for everyone to avoid using JS in their own projects as far as possible, or at least only use the good JS projects and avoid the crappy ones (and learn how to distinguish them).
