Package: nodeenv Version: 0.13.3-1 Severity: normal There are two modes for the virtual environments created by nodeenv:
1) Download and compile from source an available version of node.js into the virtual environment. This requires python2, gcc, g++, and libssl-dev. This is the default mode of operation. 2) Use the system nodejs interpreter. This doesn't require the packages listed under "Recommends:", but does require the "nodejs" package to be installed. This can be selected by passing `system` as the desired version, but is not the default. If the user chooses to install the package with `--no-install-recommends` and has not already installed these dependencies, the package will be unusable. It would probably sense to do something like: Depends: (gcc (>= 4:4.9.1), g++ (>= 4:4.9.1), libssl-dev, python) | nodejs Chris -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages nodeenv depends on: ii make 4.0-8.1 ii python3 3.4.2-2 ii python3-pkg-resources 18.0.1-1~ocf1 pn python3:any <none> Versions of packages nodeenv recommends: ii g++ 4:4.9.2-2 ii gcc 4:4.9.2-2 ii libssl-dev 1.0.1k-3+deb8u1 ii python 2.7.9-1 Versions of packages nodeenv suggests: ii nodejs 0.10.29~dfsg-2 -- no debconf information
