Whoops - I should have checked that. That is the trouble with using
templates. I have submitted a bug against npm2deb, and a pull request to
fix this. Hopefully that will mean less mistakes from everyone in the
future:

Package node modules is like peeling onions, There is always another
layer underneath :-)
I started packaging the latest release of node-cross-spawn only to
discover that it had two new dependencies. These required 12 new modules
not yet in Debian.
I have filed an ITP for node-tape, and intend to enable the tests in
node-typedarray once node-tape gets through the NEW queue:

Control: owner -1 !
Control: tags -1 moreinfo

Hi Ross,
1) control: "priority: extra"

as said before on debian-mentors the priority should be optional, unless you 
have good reason to
have extra
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-priorities

2) "In order to run the tests provided with node-typedarray, it will be

necessary to package tape for Debian."

well, isn't it better to start from tape then?


cheers,


G.
