Another update: * node-svg2ttf: requires node-xmldom to be backported * node-xmldom: builds with bullseye-backports * node-nunjucks: builds with bullseye-backports * node-parse-json: builds with bullseye-backports * node-xml2js: builds with bullseye-backports * node-jasmine: has the dependencies require to build, but the build fails on one of the tests So it may only be six packages which require backporting in order to backport node-webfont (once it reaches testing), but node-jasmine might well require some additional help, perhaps from the maintainer; it might be that it has a versioned dependency that has not been declared in the build-depends. Best wishes, Julian
