--- Begin Message ---Package: node-uglify Version: 2.8.29-3 Severity: minor tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ uglifyjs --version 2.8.29 This is after an upgrade. Before, it output: uglify-js 2.8.29 There was apparently no change to the node-uglify package itself, only to some *other* nodejs packages. Please explain how this comes to be. This broke our build, which uses the output of “uglifyjs --version 2>/dev/null” to determine whether 2.x or 3.x was used, to prevent too-new versions (as some coworkers use Canonical’s software museum together with npm, in‐ stead of getting all dependencies via Debian). To me, outputting a version number is a simple WriteLn/echo/print{,f} command. Why and how can this change if a dependency changes? Which dependency was it, and what else does this change affect? -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages node-uglify depends on: ii node-yargs 10.0.3-1 ii nodejs 6.12.0~dfsg-2 Versions of packages node-uglify recommends: ii node-source-map 0.6.1+dfsg-1 Versions of packages node-uglify suggests: pn node-acorn <none> pn node-uglify-to-browserify <none> -- no debconf information
