It is perfectly working and nothing is broken. Only in case of some future bugs, we will have to fix it ourselves without upstream help. It also just a wrapper for calling uglify-js or terser directly from webpack. We will have to replace it for next release, but I don't think it is release critical when there are people willing to maintain it and nothing is broken currently. > >> >According to webpack/package.json, webpack does not seem to actually >> >depend on this plugin, so it should be find to just remove this >> >dependency. >> > >> >If this dependency is left, node-webpack will be dropped from >> >bullseye. > >@Praveen, do you have any comments on the proposed change? I don't agree to removing webpack (which means removing a large number of node packages as well). My proposed solution is to ignore it for bullseye. > > - Jonas > -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
