[Pkg-javascript-devel] Rollup do _not_ need migrating to terser from UglifyJS

[Jonas Smedegaard]

Hi all,

It seems Rollup 0.56.3 (or some of its dependencies) had a bug causing 
it to generate a .map file causing UglifyJS (but not Terser) to fail.

This was discovered as part of bug#941601 against leaflet-markercluster 
where I found the proposed switch of compressor too invasive and had a 
closer look at what was really going in.

The bug seems fixed now with Rollup 0.68.2-1.  Please tell if relevant 
to file it for further tracking.

Reason I post here is that as part of the Rollup work, Pirate Praveen 
provided a patch for Leaflet.Markercluster which involved switching from 
UglifyJS to Terser, and I want to emphasize that such change is _not_ 
necessary and I recommend switching back if similar tricks was done for 
other libraries.
