Package: node-turbolinks
Version: 5.1.1+dfsg-5
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

In the latest version of node-turbolinks (5.1.1+dfsg-5), the files are being
installed in /usr/share instead of /usr/lib. However, the link in the directory
/usr/share/javascript/turbolinks has not been updated to reflect the new path.
Due to this, package users (like FreedomBox) trying to access the library using
the URL http://localhost/javascript/turbolinks/turbolinks.js get an error. This
path is provided by Apache configuration snippet in the javascript-common
package.

Workaround for users is to run:
rm -f /usr/share/javascript/turbolinks/turbolinks.js
ln -rs /usr/share/nodejs/turbolinks/dist/turbolinks.js
/usr/share/javascript/turbolinks/turbolinks.js

The following patch fixes the problem:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-turbolinks/merge_requests/2

Please consider making a release with the fix soon as major functionality is
broken in FreedomBox.

Thank you for packaging node-turbolinks,

Sunil

Subject: [PATCH] Fix incorrect symlink to /usr/lib in /usr/share/javascript

Without the change turbolinks is no longer accessible on
http://localhost/javascript/turbolinks/turbolinks.js . This was possible due to
Apache configuration snippet provided by javascript-common package.

Tests:

- Build package with changes using pbuilder, install and access the URL
  http://localhost/javascript/turbolinks/turbolinks.js
