[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#850082: Fix recursive dependency on node-yamlish/marked

[Tom Parker]

Package: nodejs
Version: 6.9.2~dfsg-1

At the moment, there's a recursive dependency between nodejs and
node-yamlish/marked, which means that various architectures that don't have
a current nodejs aren't able to make a new one (causing BD-Uninstallable as
per https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=nodejs). Luckily
apparently there's a way around this sort of thing using build profiles (
https://wiki.debian.org/BuildProfileSpec), and I've attached a patch
(against the master-6.x branch in the source repo, but might well build
against lower versioned ones with small changes).

Thanks,

Tom Parker
