I saw your upload (thanks for that), but how is *not* depending on
nodejs going to fix the issue we see in the autopkgtests?

As you can clearly see on the qa page [1] of nodejs, there is a relation
missing somewhere to make sure the right combination of packages is
tested. A "Breaks: node-iconv (<< 2.3.5-4~)" in nodejs would work, but
is that the appropriate solution?
