[Pkg-javascript-devel] Help needed for backporting node-esprima (Was: Backporting sagemath)

Wed Mar 8 14:49:00 UTC 2017

Hi,

in my sagemath backporting effort im struck with one leaf of the
dependency tree which is

   python-sagenb-export
    -> jupyter-notebook
      -> node-es6-promise
        -> node-esprima

(also other chains of dependencies lead to this leaf).

When trying to build node-esprima in a Jessie chroot I get

...
   debian/rules override_dh_auto_build
make[1]: Entering directory '/build/node-esprima-3.1.3+ds'
tsc -p src
src/parser.ts(3028,17): error TS2322: Type '{ ... }' is not assignable to type 'string'.
debian/rules:7: recipe for target 'override_dh_auto_build' failed
make[1]: *** [override_dh_auto_build] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/build/node-esprima-3.1.3+ds'
debian/rules:4: recipe for target 'build' failed
...

I admit I do not have the slightest idea how to fix this and thus any
help is welcome.  I have commited a branch debian/jessie-backports which
is basically a changelog entry.

Kind regards

    Andreas.

PS: Besides this the backport of needed packages to build sagemath goes
slowly but steadily forward.  I have not met any other stumbling stones
besides the above one if deactivating some build time tests which can
only done with more recent nodejs is not considered a stumbling stone.
