[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#993693: ReferenceError: options is not defined

[Julien Puydt]

Package: webpack
Version: 5.6.0+~cs6.4.0-1~exp2
Severity: grave

I was trying to update another js-team package and couldn't understand
what was wrong until I tried to just run webpack by itself in another
directory:

$ webpack 
[webpack-cli] ReferenceError: options is not defined
    at Object.apply
(/usr/share/nodejs/webpack/lib/config/defaults.js:873:30)
    at WebpackOptionsApply.process

    at createCompiler (/usr/share/nodejs/webpack/lib/webpack.js:78:28)
    at create (/usr/share/nodejs/webpack/lib/webpack.js:115:15)

    at f (/usr/share/nodejs/webpack/lib/index.js:35:15)
    at WebpackCLI.createCompiler (/usr/share/nodejs/webpack-
cli/lib/webpack-cli.js:176:24)
    at WebpackCLI.run (/usr/share/nodejs/webpack-cli/lib/webpack-
cli.js:268:25)
    at async runCLI (/usr/share/nodejs/webpack-
cli/lib/bootstrap.js:59:9)

This means it's broken ; installing unstable's 4.43.0-6 made the error
go away, so it's a problem only with the new version.

Cheers,
