What is the right way to build a Ubuntu-style apt-get package that in fact depends on node.js and some of the NPM packages as well? Should we call "npm install" from the Makefile or what?
apt-get
you could do, best to do a check to make sure it is installed in the make file.
if not output a message telling them to npm install. you might even give a prompt to install npm - they then just hit YES and it does it all for them
