I've checked all r-deps of closure-compiler in Debian, and they all build -- datatables-extensions shows some errors in a prebuilt file, but it has done so for a long time, so probably not super relevant. While I agree that having a 5 year old JS compiler in Debian is not a great situation, its also not threatening to the packages in Debian using it, so I'd suggest keeping it for now. Adrian: you raised the severity, care to lower it until buster is out (or say some words on why)? Cheers, Chris (from the Salzburg BSP)
