[Bastien Roucariès]

Package: coffeescript
Version: 1.12.7~dfsg-3
Severity: important

Hi

Upstream decided to break thing and create a new package
https://github.com/jashkenas/coffeescript

removing the hyphen in the lib path.

it could be possible to be backward compatible by creating a symlink and some
provide some compatibility on debian side.
