I'm not sure it's requested by the security team if the code is
only in source package. But it's a good idea when we save disk
space. And here we gain 1 Mo. Then I commit changes to repack
upstream sources (see cleanup.sh script).

I'm not yet a DD (and I'm not Javascript expert) then I can't
help you for xinha package. I intent to prepare horde3 package
with xinha included and remove xinha when your package will be
uploaded.
