[Pkg-javascript-devel] Commit fixing node-waf

Hello everybody,

I just made a commit to the nodejs package, fixing a bug I found in node-waf.
This bug popped up while building node-mapnik (trying to fix its RC bug); in
practice node-waf looks for /usr/bin/node instead of nodejs.

Jonas, I looked through the patches that were already in the package, and I
just added my fix to 2003_rename_node_to_nodejs.patch, since the name didn't
specifically imply a change only to the manpage. Please feel free to split it
in a separate patch, if you wish.

The commit in question is:

  http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/nodejs.git;a=commitdiff;h=25e0b0dbf0f8b8607c35a5e0ccceef11992c10db

I won't upload a new version of nodejs until Jonas or Jérémy ACKs it.

I can confirm that, with that patch, the output of "node-waf configure" goes
from:

  Checking for node path                   : not found 
  Checking for node prefix                 : not found 

to:

  Checking for node path                   : not found 
  Checking for node prefix                 : ok /usr 

(the first check is looking for the environment variable NODE_PATH).

Kindly,
David
