Please be aware that one of the reverse-dependencies of
libjs-jquery-hotkeys is cacti, which uses the tzuryby version upstream.
I haven't investigated, but I expect that replacing libjs-jquery-hotkeys
with the jeresig version is going to break cacti.

If I understand this bug properly, I think Debian could/should have two
versions of libjs-jquery-hotkeys, one for each upstream. If that is
correct, than it is too late in the release cycle to fix this issue if
we keep in mind that it is already 5 years old and present in stable
releases.
