Dear Dominique,

I tried to package the newest upstream version today, with poor outcome.

I am afraid that packaging advanced software which depends on node will
be a matter of time. There is currently no clear guideline to create
nodejs packages for Debian.

In Node's world, everything is simple : nmp install, et voilà. 

However a distribution as Debian relies on more secure systems : every
package is built in a compile farm, from its source package and nothing
else, the binary package is certified by a crypto signature, etc. During
the build of a package, no contact with Internet is allowed, since it
cannot be trusted.

If you can help me to build a Debian package for jsdoc 3, you are
welcome. I created the current debian package only for the integration
of Jsxgraph into Debian: its documentation is compiled by jsdoc. As long
as this documentation can be built by some debian package, it is enough
for my concern, even if there is some nicer documentation compiler
around.

Best regards,                   Georges.
