[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#941567: node-mysql: Dependencies not given; node-sqlstring required

[ZiNgA BuRgA]

Package: node-mysql
Version: 2.16.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

This package does not declare required dependencies, and hence, doesn't 
work unless they are installed via other means.
In particular, when I try to use this, it complains that `sqlstring` is 
unavailable, which makes the package largely unusuable.

Dependencies listed in the package.json: 
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-mysql/blob/master/package.json
- bignumber (included correctly)
- readable-stream (not referenced)
- safe-buffer (not referenced)
- sqlstring (not referenced)

node-mysql does list `node-require-all` as a dependency, but it isn't 
listed in package.json.  I don't know if there's a particular reason for 
this.

Thank you!
