[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#840760: node-livescript: FTBFS (npm: Command not found)

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:node-livescript
Version: 1.5.0+dfsg-1
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
 debian/rules build-indep
dh build-indep
   dh_testdir -i
   dh_update_autotools_config -i
   dh_auto_configure -i
   debian/rules override_dh_auto_build
make[1]: Entering directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/node-livescript-1.5.0+dfsg'
npm install jison
make[1]: npm: Command not found
debian/rules:11: recipe for target 'override_dh_auto_build' failed
make[1]: *** [override_dh_auto_build] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/node-livescript-1.5.0+dfsg'
debian/rules:8: recipe for target 'build-indep' failed
make: *** [build-indep] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-indep gave error exit status 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The relevant part of the build log is included above.

It is strongly recommended that packages are built in a clean sid chroot
to ensure that they are buildable (i.e. no missing build-dependencies).

Thanks.
