Bug Description
mozjs52 is required for gjs 3.26 which is required for GNOME Shell 3.26.
mozjs is the Spidermonkey JavaScript engine used by Firefox ESR.
Mozilla has not officially released mozjs52 yet although uh, Firefox 45 ESR is no longer supported either.
There are tarballs at

Click the pkg link when you expand a recent SM-tc set.
Since gjs is the only rdpends of mozjs38 (which was never packaged in Debian), we'll probably drop mozjs38 from Ubuntu as soon as we switch gjs over to mozjs52.
I'd like for mozjs52 to get into Ubuntu by the middle of the August so that we can do the GNOME 3.26 Beta transition in time for Ubuntu Feature Freeze, if we decide to target GNOME 3.26 this cycle.
mozjs52 will be co-maintained with the Debian GNOME team.
