Bug Description

mozjs is the SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine from Firefox ESR.

Firefox ESR 91 has reached End of Life.

mozjs91 has no remaining dependencies in Ubuntu 22.10 and is a security sensitive library, so let's remove it from Ubuntu 22.10. The replacement is mozjs102.

mozjs91 is temporarily still in Debian because mozjs102 doesn't build on armel. Debian is likely to just drop GNOME Shell and related packages from armel "soon".

$ reverse-depends src:mozjs91
No reverse dependencies found
$ reverse-depends -b src:mozjs91
No reverse dependencies found
