(This is useful for packaging a debug build of node.)

@igorklopov Can you have a look regarding this new feature? It will be very useful! Thank you.

Can we document the flag in README?

[leerob]

Closing as inactive, feel free to open a new PR and we can get this through 🙏

@leerob with this only being a 2 line change is there any reason not to allow this?

[leerob]

@OmgImAlexis there hadn't been any activity in years here. Is there an open issue related to this - or how did you find this? Happy to reconsider if multiple people are interested.

I've been subscribed for about a year. There's no activity as you'll find most long terms GitHub users won't comment as they're met with the "don't +1 this" instead we just subscribe. I assumed the PR was good to go and just hadn't been merged.

My issue was wanting to pass in a custom version for development as someone else stated.

[leerob]

@OmgImAlexis Ahh, got it! In that case, happen to re-open.

For more clarity, this needs:

• Documentation added to the README explaining how to use the flag
• Merge conflicts resolved

And then I will +1 and merge/release!

[robertsLando]

Docs should be added on pkg readme, in this section: https://github.com/vercel/pkg#environment

[baparham]

is anyone still interested in this?

[robertsLando]

For anyone that is enterested in this project, giving that I don't receive any feedback from Vercel anymore, I created my own forks of both pkg and pkg-fetch:

yao-pkg/pkg-fetch
yao-pkg/pkg

If someone is interested in helping me create a PR or move your active PR to those repositories.

Thanks 🙏🏼
