Should we rewrite the history? Or leave it like it is?

Thanks

That is a bit a pain since you started the way you did. What I did for
your info:

git checkout cdeec9bc651861b682bcd68e871f0a99fc919150
git checkout -b upstream
git checkout master
pristine-tar commit ...../dvisvgm_2.7.3.orig.tar.gz

That should do it, since dvisvgm original upstream sources were commited
first into the repo at cdeec9.

Python and ghostscript were missing for the tests. I added them, now it
builds fine in a clean chroot

Ok, please check that

Thanks for all your work!
