[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#903337: node-traverse: FTBFS in buster/sid (dh_installdocs: Cannot find "README.markdown")

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:node-traverse
Version: 0.6.6-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in buster but it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
 debian/rules build-indep
dh build-indep
   dh_update_autotools_config -i
   dh_autoreconf -i
   create-stamp debian/debhelper-build-stamp

dh binary-indep

make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
   dh_installdocs -i
dh_installdocs: Cannot find (any matches for) "README.markdown" (tried in .)

debian/rules:8: recipe for target 'binary-indep' failed
make: *** [binary-indep] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep subprocess returned exit status 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The build was made with "dpkg-buildpackage -A" in my autobuilder.
Most probably, it also fails here in reproducible builds:

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/node-traverse.html

[ Note: There has been a recent change in debhelper behaviour, the current
  behaviour is the intended one. See Bug #903133 for details ].

Thanks.
