But I'm not sure how strict nodejs dependencies are. From reading the wiki, it seems to me that the Debian JavaScript practice (policy?) is to package the newest versions of nodejs libraries and to patch where necessary. Am I right about that? > > Maybe create just a node-webfont package with embedded dependencies That does seem like a sensible idea - I hadn't thought of doing that until I read the wiki (there's a theme here!). I doubt that most of the packages required by webfont would be needed by other packages. > I have attempted to package this earlier, you can see the existing work here > https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-webfont > > You can try to continue from there. Amazing, thanks, I'll take a look! Best wishes, Julian -- Pkg-javascript-devel mailing list [email protected] https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-javascript-devel
