No more node_modules/.bin directory in the debian package

Yes, after more investigate it's the same. I'm looking for forking and fixing the regression ASAP because I must provide a working package today.

I think that's is related to #71 that breaks too much things... no more symlinks in .bin then no more .bin dir... and with the copy strategy the binaries in .bin/ are juste not usable anymore because it's no longer symlinks..

This sounds like it might be related to #71, yeah. I'm a little swamped with work things but I'll see if I can get around to doing a copy-with-dereference.

[heartsucker]

Ah #71 was already closed, so those should be referenced. Is the error you're experiencing in this ticket the same error as your mentioned in #71?

With this "revert" Xcraft-Inc@a317f93 it works as expected with the copy strategy. But with the auto strategy, I continue to lose the .bin directory :-(

[heartsucker]

Ok so would the solution to fix this for everyone be to:

• do not dereference symlinks in node_modules/.bin
• dereference all other symlinks

[Skywalker13]

It should be fine most of times, even if IMO dereferencing symlinks looks wrong to me.
