I personally do not see any concern to backport any of our packages to
Jessie.

I always suggest to not tag something that is in new because there are
potentially changes needed to pass the new queue.  The drawback is that
you might afterwards forget to tag the result.  I now checked that the
upload and the repository are equal and pushed the tag.

Just ping me if you finished your tests.

Thanks for working on this
