After much thought, I believe this implementation (#10545) would have caused severe compatibility problems when using packages published with earlier versions of Meteor in a Meteor 1.8.2 app, or when publishing packages with Meteor 1.8.2 for use with earlier Meteor versions. Specifically, this implementation relied on writing the additional .npm/package/node_modules resources found by _findSources into the unibuild JSON file(s), and there just wasn't any good way to make sure the new JSON format could be safely consumed by previous Meteor versions. Even if we found a way to hide the new resources from older versions of Meteor, perhaps by putting them in a new/different property of the unibuild JSON file, packages published with older Meteor versions might try to load an npm package with a "module" field without realizing the code must be compiled, which would likely cause a syntax error in Meteor 1.8.2, since the "module" field always gets preference over the "main" field of package.json (in Meteor 1.8.2).
Meteor is an ultra-simple environment for building modern web applications.
With Meteor you write apps:
- in modern JavaScript
- that send data over the wire, rather than HTML
- using your choice of popular open-source libraries
