[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1144052: libnode137 regressed in reproducibility

[Jérémy Lal]

I asked for an exception and it was granted,
so I reduced severity to important.

I'm keen on fixing this. The simplest approach will be to revert the change
that caused this.

Fair enough... I often abuse porterboxes that have low activity to debug
builds.

That's something I find very weird. If you send a bug report, you're
supposed to get the replies ?
Otherwise, what's the point ?
Anyway, cc-ing you as requested ;)
