The other potentially impacted package was jfsutils-1.1.15
It is fully reproducible, the code removed from CDBS
had no impact on what debhelper does at the low level;
it creates perfectly fine udeb with or without this code.
I will replicate the same experiment tomorrow with fonts-noto;
I only need 10 gigabytes of free hard disk space or something.

I gave a try to font-roboto, that was an easy one.
fonts-noto looks indeed really complex to handle.
I would iterate through other things to do first [*] and certainly don't
want to bother people busy with conflicting modernizing attempts.
[*] I had for example to upload ~5 multimedia package to uncruft oss4-dev
library that was lingering in the index as it was previously used for
kfreebsd support;
and itself was keeping a ghost depedency on cdbs.
See you tomorrow
