[Pkg-javascript-devel] packaging tilemill (ITP #644767)

[Johannes Schauer]

Hello,

I wanted to try out tilemill and I found an ITP for it [1]. Unfortunately I can
reproduce the problem that the last commenter, Christopher Baines, faced and
the produced binary packages are empty. The current tilemill packaging lives at
[2] and was done by David Paleino. It uses a default dh debian/rules file and
as I saw from other nodejs based source packages, that should be enough to
build nodejs based software.

I'm not familiar with nodejs packaging. How can I find out why tilemill fails
in the way it does? Are there some likely suspects I can check?

Thanks!

cheers, josch
