Bug#801717: lintian: False positive for source-is-missing

[Neil Williams <codehelp@debian.org>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.38
Severity: normal

lintian is complaining about source-is-missing in the
lava-server binary package for these files. The files
are present in the package as source:

dashboard_app/static/dashboard_app/js/jquery.flot.navigate.js
lava_scheduler_app/static/lava_scheduler_app/js/beautify.js
lava_scheduler_app/static/lava_scheduler_app/js/shCore.js
lava_server/htdocs/js/jquery.validate.js
lava_server/lava-server/js/jquery.validate.js

lava-server has support for using a number of javascript packages
and using symlinks to the minified javascript files in those
packages. I'm unclear why these files are being listed as
lacking source as these are not minified javascript files.
