Thanks for the notice, this is welcome!

This doesn't seem to be quite so easy, though. The bundled files actually
seem to come from scriptaculous 1.6.1, which bundles prototype.js
from prototype 1.5.0_rc0, so they are all significantly older than their
Debian counterparts.

Furthermore, these files are in turn bundled by the cropper library
from http://www.defusion.org.uk/ . Any chance you'd be interested in
packaging that too and handling any possible incompatibilities with the
newer versions of scriptaculous and prototype? :)

Hm, I see there's an ITP (#468418) already by Marcelo Jorge Vieira. Cc'ing.

Cheers,
