Sorry - I was looking at the "Bug reports" link which is the binary package, not the source package, so missed ublock-origin #877040 and debianbuttons #870344. There's also #866997 requesting that mozilla-devscripts provide tools for packaging WebExtensions, which has patches.

Hello everybody, as discussed more than two weeks ago (time passes too fast), I intend to do a mass bug filing (MBF) against packages that use any of those alioth list addresses in debian/control that were *not* migrated to the alioth-lists service, and hence are now invalid. Statistic bit: Of 10
