[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#988507: help needed to prepare upgrade of terser

[Jonas Smedegaard]

One known blocker for upgrading terser is that the executable has 
changed name.  I should have adjusted all packages in the Javascript 
team and filed bugreports against packages outside the team, and now in 
theory all packages should succesfully build with terser v4.8 available 
in experimental.

Next step in upgrading terser to v4.8 is to test if that theory holds 
true.  I have not found time for testing that for some time, and also 
don't have the experience in that task so I guess others in the team are 
more efficient in doing it than me.

So consider this an invitation to help modernizing terser package:

 1.  Test-build all reverse-build-dependencies of terser
     in a build environment with experimental terser 4.8.0-1 installed
 2a. if many builds fail, report that to 988507 at bugs.debian.org
 2b. if few builds fail, file bugreport against those packages
 3.  report summary of tests made to 988507 at bugs.debian.org

Thanks for considering!

 - Jonas

P.S.  If noone else does this, I will do it myself at some point, just 
not sure when...
