Hi all,

pkg-js-tools provides a Node.js auto installer (debhelper plugin) used
by JS Team.

Prior to 0.9.26, pkg-js-tools used DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE instead of
DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH to install arch dependent Node.js files. This affects
i386 build since these files are not installed in the good directory.
This causes reproducible build failures (see [1] for an example) and
render these packages unusable with i386.

I didn't find in doc how to discriminate afected packages. The only way to
see if a package is OK is to look at
`debc|grep usr/lib/i686-linux-gnu/nodejs`: files have to be installed in
usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu instead.

Note that buster packages are not affected: files where previously
installed in /usr/lib/nodejs (all arch and indep files). That's why affected
packages are those which:
 *     are arch-dependent
 * and depends on pkg-js-tools
 * and were rebuilt after pkg-js-tools 0.9.0 release (0.8 in experimental)

Cheers,
Xavier

Package that don't use recent pkg-js-tools have a "debian/install", so
should not be affected

Hi Xavier,

If you tell me about a bug report, please include the bug number. You
can even do so in the initial submission using X-Debbugs-Cc.

The multiarch hinter has the relevant data for unstable:

SELECT distinct package.name FROM package JOIN content ON content.pid = package.id WHERE architecture = 'i386' AND filename LIKE './usr/lib/i686-linux-gnu/%';

dolphin-owncloud
fswatch
libhmsbeagle-dev
likwid
node-iconv
node-modern-syslog
node-node-sass
node-nodedbi
node-re2
node-sqlite3
node-ws
node-zipfile

This looks like very few affected packages and it is strictly providing
an upper bound. The non-node packages are likely just buggy. Unless I am
mistaken, lintian also has a tag for this symptom, but I cannot find it
at the moment.

Thanks, I can rebuild node* package if you think it's more simple than a
transition

Hi yadd,

I scheduled the node pages on this list (minus node-node-sass, it
FTBFS). Do these non-node packages need inspection first?

Hi,

no additional inspection needed I think (already tested with amd64).
I'll survey and fix packages if needed (they have test or
reverse-depends on package which have tests).

Next Node.js 12 transition tests will also help here

Hi Paul,

The non-node ones need sourceful uploads.
