Link to code example:

The current behavior

Different contents of file cat /usr/share/nodejs/react-is/index.js during installation node-react via "sudo apt-get install" and install from source.

The expected behavior

Equal contents of file cat /usr/share/nodejs/react-is/index.js

[ppetrov75]

Checked on Debian12. Content of the file is same after install from source. Some output: $ cat /usr/share/nodejs/react-is/index.js 'use strict';

if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') { module.exports = require('./cjs/react-is.production.min.js'); } else { module.exports = require('./cjs/react-is.development.js'); } $ sudo dpkg -i ./node-react_18.2.0+dfsg+~cs87.31.26-4_all.deb [sudo] password for user: (Reading database ... 354612 files and directories currently installed.)

Why in the world are you trying to install React as a Linux package?

Also, the React team is definitely not responsible for any repackaging of React into a Linux package - they only publish to NPM.

[ppetrov75]

Thank you for answering.

I install it as a package because in Ubuntu it comes as a *.deb file and therefore it is possible to install it separately as a package and build from source.

I see contacts of maintainers of the package. So I'll write them. Maintainer: Debian Javascript Maintainers pkg-javascript-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org Uploaders: Pirate Praveen praveen@debian.org

Thank you.
