Hi, I'm not at DebConf, but others from the Debian GNOME team are.

Packaging of mozjs52 is already done at
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-gnome/mozjs52.git

Jordi sponsored it into the new queue. Hopefully, it won't take long
too there because it's required to get a newer gnome-shell.

Maybe Cinnamon will be able to follow GNOME to port to mozjs52 soon?

The Debian GNOME team isn't interested in uploading mozjs38, but the
packaging is in the mozjs38.git repo if you need it (it was needed for
Ubuntu 17.04).

Thanks,
Jeremy Bicha

Control: retitle -1 ITP: mozjs52 -- SpiderMonkey JavaScript library


The Debian GNOME team is skipping mozjs38 and going straight to 
mozjs52. mozjs52 is part of GNOME 3.26 and is the JavaScript engine 
from Firefox 52 ESR, the only ESR supported at this time.



The packaging is derived from Debian's mozjs24 packaging.


The debian/copyright is from Firefox but with parts that don't apply 
to this smaller source package removed.


I'm also interested in a newer version of mozjs (for cinnamon), please let me 
know if you need a hand packaging it (and/or if you are at DebConf).


Happy hacking,
