[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#845745: node-rimraf: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: node-rimraf
Version: 2.5.4-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that node-rimraf could not be built reproducibly.

This is due to exluding bin.js from dh_fixperms (to keep it executable)
which means that the group "write" bit is inherited from the system's
umask.

Patch attached.
