Hi,

when I create javadoc with openjdk-9, Lintian warns me about
a embedded-javascript-library. For instance libjide-oss-java is
currently affected by this issue.

https://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/pkg-java-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org.html#libjide-oss-java

Apparently openjdk-9 uses an internal copy of jquery.js. It would be
better if this could be avoided by automatically symlinking against the system
library.

Regards,

Markus

This issue was originally reported with openjdk-9 but it also happens
with openjdk-10 and 11.  The initial bug report refers to jquery.js
only but with openjdk-11 it also includes jquery-ui.js, jquery-ui.css
and their minimised versions.  With openjdk-10 there was also jszip
and jszip-utils.

There's a thread on the debian-java mailing list about the issue [1]

I went through the javadoc options looking for some way to configure
this.

I'm thinking that the way to fix this is to have a doclet (a java
class that configures how the javadocs are created) for the debian
docs.  I have no experience doing this, but going through the docs
this seems to be what would be needed.
