Description-en: Base support for JavaScript library packages
Web applications that use JavaScript need to distribute it through HTTP. Using
a common path for every script avoids the need to enable this path in the HTTP
server for every package.
.
This is a helper package that creates /usr/share/javascript and enables it in
the Apache and Lighttpd webserver.
