Sorry, in this case, I meant to include that a dependant rpm that would
bridge the javascript code to our code; i.e., one that would create or
update the necessary symlinks to bring the code into
/usr/share/ovirt-server as needed.

That way the third party code wouldn't need to packaged more than once
for any project to use it.
