Package: eslint
Version: 5.16.0~dfsg+~4.16.8-5
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Immediately after an installation of eslint, running eslint --init
yields:
Error: Cannot find module 'inquirer'
Require stack:
- /usr/share/nodejs/eslint/lib/config/config-initializer.js

I see there's a node-inquirer in recommends; that currently has no
installation candidate on my system, but this behaviour would suggest
this should really be a depends -- or, perhaps that a line or two on how
to run eslint without it in the manpage or a README.Debian would be
helpful.
Incidentally, trying with eslint --no-eslintrc I also get a missing
dependency:
There was a problem loading formatter: ./formatters/stylish
Error: Cannot find module 'text-table'
Require stack:
- /usr/share/nodejs/eslint/lib/formatters/stylish.js
- /usr/share/nodejs/eslint/lib/cli-engine.js
- /usr/share/nodejs/eslint/lib/cli.js
- /usr/share/nodejs/eslint/bin/eslint.js
-- perhaps node-table needs to be promoted to depends, too?
Thanks,
Markus

"Recommends" means needed "in all but unusual installations":

You mention that you cannot install node-inquirer - I don't know why
that is, but suspect it to be an issue with your system setup rather
than with the package.

I agree that output could be nicer. I doubt that will happen, though:
Upstream most likely is not interested (they don't distinguish between
dependencies and recommendations like in Debian), and I don't expect to
take time to patch the code for such detailed polish.
If you think differently, then I encourage you to file a bug upstream
about improving the error message-
You may also propose a patch to improve the error message, that could be
applied to the Debian package even if upstream does not want it.
Beware, though, that I will likely accept only a small patch, because
otherwise it could cause a maintenance burden.
Thanks for reporting this - I really appreciate bugreports, even though
in this case I disagree that there's a bug here.
Kind regards,
- Jonas
