gitlab 15.10.7: bookworm-fasttrack only and no more changes to package.json
Published on June 1, 2023 by Pirate Praveen
Gitlab 15.10.7 is available on bookworm-backports and as announced earlier new updates will only be targeting bookworm-fasttrack.
One more change in this update is, we no longer modify package.json to use packaged node modules. We only use nodejs and yarnpkg packages from the archive. Hopefully when yarn-plugin-apt - https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/yarn-plugin-apt is available in the archive (along with corepack - yarn 2+/berry), we can reconsider this.
Since we are using yarn berry already and upstream yarn.lock is targeting yarn 1, we have to modify yarn.lock. Next we will try to use yarn 1 directly so we can use upstream yarn.lock directly. We used yarn berry so using packaged modules was easier, but we no longer need that.
