Package: release.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:mozjs78
X-Debbugs-Cc: mozjs78 at packages.debian.org
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package mozjs78

[ Reason ]
This update adds 2 patches to fix 2 FTBFS issues (python3.11 & gcc12)

[ Impact ]
mozjs78 can be built from source

[ Tests ]
mozjs78 in Unstable has built on all release architectures.
mozjs78 does not have autopkgtests itself yet, but all the cjs
autopkgtests triggered by this update have passed.

[ Risks ]

[ Checklist ]
  [X] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [X] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]
mozjs78 is the SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine from the obsolete
Firefox ESR 78 branch. It is only used by cjs (a fork of gjs), a
critical element of the Cinnamon desktop. The Cinnamon developers will
eventually switch to newer versions of mozjs but this won't happen for
Bookworm.

Thank you,
