The package uses python-any-r1 but doesn't have any dependency on Python. If the package uses Python during build time, it needs: DEPEND="${PYTHON_DEPS}"
Tried it, adding ${PYTHON_DEPS} works for me (was on Python 2.6 and nodejs didn't compile, 2.7 got merged as dependency after change): DEPEND="${PYTHON_DEPS} ${RDEPEND}"

I confirm adding ${PYTHON_DEPS} works for me as well.
This helped build nodejs-0.10.24 on Prefix. Can we get the patch into the tree?
