Dear Maintainer,

I tried to use the "JavaScript beautifier" option, and bluefish complained that
/usr/share/bluefish/jsbeautify can not be found. I checked, and it is indeed
the case.

I _suspect_ that this may be a packaging error, as packages.debian.org search
indicates /usr/share/bluefish/jsbeautify to be in bluefish-data in Bullseye (as
it should be: it is architecture-independent), but it is not there. Meanwhile,
the /usr/share/bluefish/jsbeautifier/ directory and the files in it seem to be
in the bluefish package (they were in the bluefish-data package before in
Buster).

Unpacking /usr/share/bluefish/jsbeautify from the bluefish-data .deb package
from Buster, and fixing the shebang to /usr/bin/python3 fixed the problem for
me, so this is a working workaround for now.
