Good idea. It would be nice if we can somehow automate installation too, instead of adding each module in debian/install. May be we can read package.json#dependencies to determine which should be installed (but it can get complex if we consider whole dependency tree). Or provide debian/node_modules file to explicitly list the node modules to be installed. -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
