Description: collection of tools to aid packaging Node modules in Debian
  The Debian JavaScript Group works on packaging JavaScript libraries for
  Debian. This collection contains tools which help the group with
  day-to-day work.
  .
  It provide debhelper files (set dh-sequence-nodejs into build
  dependencies) to automatically:
   * link or copy needed modules into node_modules/ directory
   * automatically build package and components when build system is
     recognized
   * launch test
   * choose files to install
   * build "Provides" value for package with components
   * build pkgjs-lock.json and "X-Javascript-Built-Using" value files for
     packages built with webpack/browserify
   * clean all its stuff during dh_auto_clean step
  .
  and some utilities:
   * add-node-component: manage uscan components
   * github-debian-upstream: creates debian/upstream/metadata for GitHub
                             source
   * debcheck-node-repo: compares vcs repo registered in npm registry
                         with the source repo declared in debian/watch
   * dh-make-node: build debian/ directory in a source repository of a
                   node module
   * pkgjs-audit: a "npm audit" that uses Debian dependencies
   * pkgjs-depends: find needed dependencies for a node module
   * pkgjs-ln: link a Debian dependency into node_modules/
   * pkgjs-ls: a "npm ls" that search also in Debian directories
   * pkgjs-utils: various little utilities
  .
  and also:
   * a salsa(1) configuration file for JS Team
   * "pkg-js-extra" profile for lintian
