Hi,
not easy: nodepath is used by dh-sequence-nodejs during
"auto_configure"
step, so if you use it during nodejs build, circular dependency will
stay
Yes, i've stopped using it for building nodejs.
Was this the sole reason for pkg-js-tools build-dependency in nodejs ?

Hi,
pkg-js-tools test-depends on nodejs:any, not really build-depends. So I
don't think its a heavy circular dependency: you can build pkg-js-tools
with "nocheck"
Cheers,
Yadd
