[Python-modules-team] Bug#750715: ipython: FTBFS against uglify 2.x series - uglifyjs -nc is not a supported option

[Leo Iannacone]

Source: ipython
Severity: important


Dear maintainer,

your package fails to build from source with uglify version 2.4.13-1,
which is now in experimental and will be soon migrated to unstable.

Here a snip of buildlog:

The options -nc (no copyright) is no longer supported.

Thanks in advance,
