[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1000869: pkg-js-tools: move nodepath to nodejs package ?

[Jérémy Lal]

Package: pkg-js-tools
Version: 0.9.84
Severity: normal

Hi,

while working on bootstrapping nodejs on a new arch,
i found out that loop:

nodejs uses nodepath during build (in debian/rules),
and is ditributed in pkg-js-tools, which itself depends on nodejs.

It would make sense to let nodepath be distributed by nodejs package ?
