Uggg.... So jquery.hotkeys.js and a few other embedded JavaScript libraries are removed when " debian/rules build" is called, but on the LP buildds that is only going to be called when building i386. When, for instance, amd64 is built "debian/rules build-arch" is called and the JavaScript files aren't deleted. So we end up with packages with different contents depending on the arch.

Additionally, while jquery.hotkeys.js is removed from the package, the libjs-jquery-hotkeys package isn't added as a depends, recommends, or suggests. The patch that is supposed to let python-coverage use system libs instead of the bundled ones doesn't seem to even try and deal with the fact that jquery.hotkeys.js is removed. It only seems to deal with the removal of jquery itself and jquery.tablesorter.min.js

So this is very much a bug in python-coverage at this point.
