Quoting Patrick Ouellette (poue...@debian.org): > Can someone please explain to be why it is so unpalatable to > have the Node.js package in the README and in an installation/ > configuration message include the following (or similar) message:
("last minute debconf addition hater" hat ON) Please not not not not not in a debconf note. Debconf notes are Evil..:-). If this is the way either package goes, please don't even consider using debconf to "warn" users for that. NEWS.Debian is the place where this should go. See debconf-devel(7) (where this is not /me talking but Joey Hess) <debconf-devel reader hat ON> I'm really not comfortable with the nodejs package virtually enforcing the maintainers of node to deal with a transition. That's my rough feeling after reading part of this thread. I think it is a very bad idea (marketically speaking) to make ham radio users mad about Debian, even if we have good reasons for that)
