[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#722490: src:pegjs: please relax debhelper compatibility level to ease backporting

Package: src:pegjs
Severity: minor

Hi,

pegjs source package seems to do no extraordinary packaging tricks, yet
uses debhelper compatibility level 9, making backporting to stable or
oldstable harder, as it then involves also backporting debhelper (or
relying on other backporting of that).

Please consider relaxing to use compatibility level 8 and corresponding
relaxed build-dependency versioning (or then simply drop the versioning,
as it is then - despite debhelper maintainer suggestions - unneeded).


 - Jonas
