node-source-map is a simple project - you embedded source-map-mappings 
which is a complex project.

Please do *NOT* embed complex projects.

General rule in Debian is to package each project separately.  That 
general rule is excempted for extremely simple NodeJS projects (due to 
Debian packaging metadata being larger than upstrem npm metadata).

The exceptional treatment of extremely simple NodeJS projects do not 
apply here!

source-map-mappings should be packaged separately, and then 
build-depended on from package node-source-map.
