package: ftp.debian.org

In cases where both node and browser parts are pure libraries, we have been using Provides for browser libraries and dropping dependency on nodejs. But when a package distributes an executable in /usr/bin/, adding nodejs dependency will be unnecessary for the browser library or if removed the executable will not run.

I was suggested on #debian-ftp irc that this cannot be done. I'd like this to be on record and hence opening a bug.
