[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1052765: npm: README.Debian refers to missing manpage npm-folders

[Anders Andersson]

Package: npm
Version: 9.2.0~ds1-1
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: pipatron at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

While trying to understand how npm works with global paths in debian I
started reading the file /usr/share/doc/npm/README.Debian which contains
the following line:

"Please read npm-config(1), npm-folders(1) and npm-link(1) man pages."

However, npm-folders is missing, and I did not find an obvious package
to install that would make this manpage available.
