[mir] gnome-js-common

[Jeremy Bícha]

Binary package hint: gnome-js-common

1. Availability - already packaged & builds in Ubuntu universe & Debian stable

2. Rationale - gnome-js-common is a dependency of seed (MIR bug #782972), which means gnome-js-common is indirectly blocking Gnome3 apps like eog, gedit, & totem.

3. Security - Part of GNOME. There are no known security bugs:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=gnome-js-common

4. QA -
No bugs currently in Ubuntu, Debian, or Gnome
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-js-common
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=gnome-js-common
(It's unclear where Gnome bugs should be filed, perhaps against seed)

5. UI - uses intltool for translation

6. Dependencies: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/+branch/ubuntu/gnome-js-common/view/head:/debian/control
All dependencies are already in main

7. Standards compliant 3.8.3

8. Maintenance - We are currently in sync with Debian

9. Background information
"gnome-js-common hasn't been touched in forever, but it still works fine; nothing really needs updating. The plan was for both GJS and Seed to depend on it so as to abstract out these "common" bits as well as tests ensuring compatibility between the two, but GJS never adopted it." from https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650592
