The binary package node-d3 depends on nodejs.<br>
<br>
Dependencies are directional: Packages with code that _calls_ other code<br>
should depend on the package providing that other code, but packages<br>
providing code _called_ from other code should *not* declare a<br>
dependency.<br>
<br>
It seems the package node-d3 contains only library code, no executables,<br>
and it is therefore highly unlikely that the dependency is needed.<br>
<br>
Concretely the depenency is painful when using the library code with<br>
other JavaScript interpreters, most notably loading the code int a<br>
web browser.<br>
<br>
Please drop the dependency unless really needed.<br>
<br>
(...and do so for all other node-d3* packages as well)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>node-d3 is supposed to be required from nodejs,</div><div>isn't libjs-d3 meant to be used for browsers ?</div><div><br></div><div>Jérémy</div></div></div>
