Package: nodejs-dev Version: 4.7.2~dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Affects: npm npm2deb node-gyp libssl-dev
Dear NodeJS Maintainers, since the upload of 4.7.2~dfsg-1ΒΈ npm is no more co-installable with libssl-dev which is rather annoying. Full dependency chain causing this issue: * npm depends upon node-gyp * node-gyp depends upon nodejs-dev * nodejs-dev depends upon libssl1.0-dev * libssl1.0-dev conflicts with libssl-dev It would be nice if that chain could be broken somewhere as any non-development package pulling in a non-default development package which conflicts with a default development package is very annoying. Maybe a solution similar to the one for apache2-dev can found: > apache2 (2.4.23-8) unstable; urgency=medium > > * Move the mod_ssl_openssl.h header and the dependency on libssl-dev to a > new package apache2-ssl-dev. Packages that interface with openssl > state from mod_ssl must build-depend on this new package. > This will help to disentangle the build-deps in the openssl transition. > Closes: #845033 > > -- Stefan Fritsch <s...@debian.org> Sun, 20 Nov 2016 00:33:13 +0100 -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (110, 'experimental'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'buildd-experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.7.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages nodejs-dev depends on: ii libssl1.0-dev 1.0.2j-5 ii libuv1-dev 1.9.1-3 ii nodejs 4.7.2~dfsg-1 ii python 2.7.13-1 nodejs-dev recommends no packages.
