You appear to have taken the (duplicated) github project descriptions,
and pasted them here, without noticing that this results in three copies
of the same sentence ending up here.

Also, it's not really appropriate to have the usage for the function in
a package description.  I realise that it's often quite hard to come up
with meaningful descriptions for these very short functions, but please
do try.

If you imagine writing a description for someone that has not actually
used node.js that might help, and makes sure that the description
conforms to the last line of 3.4.2 from policy:

  https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#s-descriptions

Well done for including this bit, as it helps outsiders keep track of
what's going on.

Cheers, Phil.
