Bug#1083100: help needed on the Prometheus front

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

There is npm2deb. Running `npm2deb depends -b -r <pkg name in npm dot js>` can give you an idea about the dependency tree (the commands might be a bit different, it's been a while since I last dealt with it). Although I have to warn you that it is...... *very slow*.

Best,
Ananthu
