[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#881262: node-module-deps: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: node-module-deps
Version: 4.1.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: buildpath

Hi,

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

This is because output.json includes the absolute build path. Patch
attached that replaces this with the examples directory.

We could also do this via a patch on the source file itself (ie.
removing __dirname) but this way keeps all patching of these files
together at the very least.
