[Pkg-javascript-devel] nodejs binary rename transition plan

[Jérémy Lal]

Hi,
Jonas worked on transitioning the nodejs package, following
tech-ctte decision [1].

* nodejs 0.6.19~dfsg1-3 version has a list of Breaks relations
  that is not accurate : please help fixing it.

* some packages do not depend at all on /usr/bin/node, please
  notify us (or better, edit directly collab-maint repository)
  so they get removed from that Breaks list.

* some packages really depend on /usr/bin/node, they must be
  patched to rely on /usr/bin/nodejs. Once done, please make
  sure we update the Breaks relation from (<= $bad) to (<< $good~)
  in the nodejs package.

* the fixed packages should (build-)depend on this new nodejs
  version.

* Please remember to add a trailing ~ to ease backporting


Cheers,

Jérémy.
