[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#976341: node-jest: please provide real (not virtual) package node-jest-worker

[Jonas Smedegaard]

Source: node-jest
Version: 26.6.3+ds+~cs64.28.30-1
Severity: normal

node-rollup-plugin-terser has a runtime dependency on node-jest-worker.

Currently node-jest-worker is provided as a virtual package by jest.
Problem with that is the size of the dependency tree...

rollup+node-rollup-plugin-terser+jest:             334 pkgs / 182 MB

rollup+node-rollup-plugin-terser+node-jest-worker: 136 pkgs / 107 MB

I.e. the size is approximately half with node-jest-worker separate from jest.


Please provide real (not virtual) package node-jest-worker,
and have jest depend on or recommend that, as appropriate.

Hint: Introducing a new package causes a visit the the NEW queue,
which potentially can require some time for processing.  To avoid
such waiting time stalling other development of the jest package
it can be beneficial to first mae a release to experimental
(where it can linger while other releases are made to unstable).
