A lot of upstreams use this tool or jshint during their build, particularly due to systems like grunt encouraging it in their docs
To save time for other maintainers, why not package a repackaged upstream tarball? Just strip out everything with the "no evil" clause None of the logic is mandatory for a build process anyway, this is just a QA tool If there are no warnings left at all, then I suppose the tool could just spit out a message like the following: Warning: your build script depends on a non-free tool. Please stop calling jslint or set JSLINT_EVIL_IGNORE=1 to make this message go away If Mr Crockford really wants people to consider the advice that his tool gives about JavaScript coding practices, then he will release the code under a free software license and then all the other stuff will work the way he wants it to. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
