[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#969641: node-entities: should depend on nodejs

[Jonas Smedegaard]

Package: node-entities
Version: 2.0.2-2
Severity: serious

node-* packages must depend on nodejs -
libjs-* need not (when _only_ targeting browser use).

Changelog for release 2.0.2-2 includes "Drop runtime dependency on nodejs
(to avoid installing nodejs with l ibjs-markdown-it" -
but libjs-markdown-it does _not_ depend on nodejs,
neither directly nor transitively.

Perhaps there was no issue to fix, and you simply confused
libjs-markdown-it and node-markdown-it?

Please revert the change, to have node-* package depend on nodejs.

If you disagree that nodejs libraries must depend on nodejs,
then please let's discuss that general change in the team first.
