[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#977663: Possible rearrangement of binary packages

[Pirate Praveen]

Package: node-babel7
Version: 7.12.11+~cs150.141.84-1
Severity: wishlist

@babel/runtime and @babel/standalone is targetted at browsers and used 
as runtime dependencies unlike the rest of babel (all others are used 
as build dependencies).

So consider creating node-babel-runtime and node-babel-standalone as 
separate binary packages.

For example, now yarnpkg pulls in entire node-babel7 even though it 
needs only @babel/runtime.
