[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#681356: npm: Add build-essential as a Recommends

Package: npm

Dear Maintainer,

In Ubuntu, we had a request to add build-essential as a npm Recommends
because it is "often needed when you use npm install (e.g for npm
install in the root directory when you npm-install(ed) express)"  Here's
the patch that resulted.

(Ubuntu bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/npm/+bug/981213)

Thanks for considering the patch.
