I'm sorry but I have not idea as well on how to fix.
As a matter of fact, I do think web apps (most of them at least) have no reasons
to be packaged at all. That said, it does not solve the problem :)

To be more constructive, that would require to track softly some files as
belonging to the package, which I don't like much... have a directory which act
like @sample might be doable but still I do consider that as a hack.

Any better idea welcomed
