Cannot build frontend about sequencetubemap

[cartoonist]

I should add that my node version is v8.11.1.

This patch fixed the issue (I really don't know why, but it works):

Hm. It works for me on on Linux on Node 6.5.0:

[anovak@courtyard frontend]$ git checkout upstream/master
Note: checking out 'upstream/master'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

HEAD is now at 8662ed1 make compatible with vg version v1.7.0-103-gf87f178

But for another person in our lab on Mac we see the problem you are describing, on Node 7.0.0. Your patch seems to solve it there as well.

How did you decide to move that particular line there?

I have zero knowledge about gulp. So, I don't know why it exactly fixes the issue. :) In fact, I used gulp-debug to find the problematic task and line in gulpfile.js. Then, searched for some sample code to re-write task scripts to "browserify" main.js and write main.bundle.js. The sample code worked. Then, I compared it with the original scripts task and figured it out the only effective difference is the order of this line.
