[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#611698: Lets move on

[Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen]

nodejs is really needed in testing, so lets rename /usr/bin/node to 
/usr/bin/nodejs and drop the Conflict entry. Then build another package 
called nodejs-node, which depends on nodejs, and contains a symlinks 
/usr/bin/node to nodejs and conflicts the node package. Maybe add a 
"Suggest: nodejs-node" to the nodejs package. nodejs-node might even be 
its own source package.

After that the fight can continue between the nodejs-node and node 
package. Then nodejs can migrate to testing and nodejs-node can be held 
back by this issue.

If nodejs had been in testing it would have been protected from this 
annoying bug:
