Hi Vladimir,

Thank you for the reminder.  I can easily revert the change.  But to
make sure I understand the requirements, how far back do we want to
support backports of new uploads of jtreg6?

Although it wasn't part of the buster release, debhelper 13.x is
available in old-old-stable (buster) backports [0,1], which is as far as
I looked before making the change.  Is jtreg6 needed for stretch, which
is currently in EOL ELTS [2]?

Thank you,
tony
