Here's a debdiff excluding the translations and the now-bundled copy of libdazzle: https://people.debian.org/~smcv/epiphany-browser_3.32.1.2-1_without-libdazzle.diff and a separate debdiff between buster's libdazzle and the bundled copy, in the hope that this is less horrible to review than the whole of the bundled copy: https://people.debian.org/~smcv/epiphany-browser_3.32.1.2-1_libdazzle.diff An upload to unstable would presumably differ only by a changelog entry. > someone who knows the package better should probably take over at > this point, so I'm marking the unblock request as moreinfo This still stands. I don't use epiphany-browser myself, so if the GNOME team is intending to release it in buster, I would strongly prefer for someone else to do the upload to unstable. If nobody is willing to do that, then we should remove epiphany-browser from buster, and possibly reopen #916347 "epiphany-browser: Don't include in Buster". Thanks, smcv
