 Currently we use debian/build_modules to add build only modules, but
that is manual and we cannot use uscan like other components. Can we add an option to watch file to specify a component is build-only and need
 not be installed in the binary package?

For example katex-fonts in node-katex, I'd like to use uscan to download the compnent, but I don't want it installed in node_modules in the final
 package. May be an option to specify which directory it should be
 symlinked to, for example, in this case, I want it symlinked to
 submodules and not node_modules (node_modules can be the default if
 nothing is specified).

Hi,

you can do it: if you list components in debian/nodejs/submodules, only
listed components will be installed

Thanks, that works. Would it be a lot of work to do it in watch as a new option? Just checking if it can be done at single place easily.
