Re: Typescript 4.9 under sid



Hi,

I just sat down to fix the node-rollup-pluging-typescript2 package
that was affecting the migration and noticed not only that it has
already been fixed, but typescript version 4.9.5 is also now in
testing!

weepingclown@circus:~$ rmadison --suite testing node-typescript
node-typescript | 4.9.5+ds1-2   | testing    | source, all

Thanks rouca for finishing up the remaining work!

As an addendum, I'd mention that the typescript version in debian is
still too old. Upstream is already looking at 5.7-rc and the gap
is only going to widen at this rate. It'd be nice to have at least
the current major version (which would still likely change in the
coming 2 years) in trixie. That said, I don't exactly have uses for
js/ts in my life and I am no wizard of it either. Nonetheless, I'd
be willing to help if a transition were to be started (I am certainly
not starting yet another by myself, being unable to finish it leaves
quite a bad aftertaste for me). And if we are doing that, It is
probably best to just skip to 5.0.4 instead of just going through all
the minor versions of 5.0.*. As far as I remember, the only major
breaking changes were some enum behaviour changes (which I could be
wrong about). In any case, this looks like the perfect to time to
request a transition from the release team and going for it.
