I can see a build dependency on node-babel-code-frame

https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/eslint/-/blob/debian/master/debian/control#L12

reverse-depends command from ubuntu-dev-tools also lists eslint (used 
to find the reverse build dependencies on node-babel)

$ reverse-depends -b src:node-babel
Reverse-Testsuite-Triggers
* eslint                        (for node-babel-code-frame)

Reverse-Build-Depends
* eslint                        (for node-babel-code-frame)
