These message are false-positive bad warning when using default
.npmignore. I'll remove them in pkg-js-tools.

The difference comes from new pkg-js-tools feature: it reads now
.npmignore, then /usr/share/nodejs/jest-each/assets/ is now removed. I
didn't see that this directory contains 4 very big .gif!

So closing this bug, this is not a bug but an improvement of pkg-js-tools!

Thanks to have looked at this.

Cheers,
Xavier
