Bug#962239: RFP: jc -- converts command output to JSON

[Kelly Brazil <kellyjonbrazil@gmail.com>]

Hi Sudip,

We have updated jc to version 1.12.0 which now has a lower version requirement for pygments. 

Jc now only requires pygments version 2.3.0 and above, so it should package with the existing pygments version now.

Thanks,
Kelly
