Thank you again for so quickly packaging this one!

To facilitate backport bulids for neurodebian (and potentially debian
backports), would you mind dropping compat level to 13 from current 14 (only in
testing/sid ATM)?  Given how simple it is, unlikely any feature of 14th is
needed here, is it?

with 13 - seems to build fine across recent debian/ubuntus

Hi Yaroslav,

I'm (trying to) maintaining a consistend debian/* over all of the
packages I'm involved in and dh14 has a bunch of nice things.

Given that debhelper can be backported easily (simple rebuild, no
additional depends/build-depends needed), I'd prefer if you'd use dh14
rather than I'm going backwards in time. I'm doing that too in
debian-fastforward, it would be nice if someone would do it in
trixie-backports as well.

Regards,
Daniel
