My initial plan was to simply file an RM bug.  The package has a popcon
of 5 and I wasn't able to find any reverse dependencies.  But when I
took a look at the upstream package, I thought that it might be useful
to some and so decided to update it.

Given how late it is in the freeze, I wasn't considering filing an
unblock request.  For what it's worth, debhelper 12 is part of buster
and the resulting binary packages are identical:

So I think that a user of buster could easily build a package from the
sources in unstable.

All that said, if someone needs t-digest to be part of buster, please
feel free to revert the cdbs/debhelper change and upload a 1:3.0-3
package.

Cheers,
tony
