Removing buster tag, as this version is only in experimental - for exactly this
reason. We really don't want policykit to use mozjs in any release, both for
maintenance/security reasons and also because it's a rather bad idea in general
to have a touring complete and weakly-typed language to describe security
properties instead of the current declarative rules.

This is a known issue, but resolving it requires upstream work.

This bug does not block the removal of mozjs 1.8.5. The version of
polkit that needs mozjs is only in experimental.

Dear maintainer,

Your package is depending against mozjs 1.8.5. This package is old
and currently orphaned.

Could you please remove this dependency or switch to a more recent
version of mozjs?

We should remove this version of mozjs from buster, I'm planning to
make this bug RC when the new development cycle is open.

Kind Regards,

Laurent Bigonville
