(please explain about the transition: impacted packages, reason, ... for more info see: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/ReleaseTeam/Transitions) Hi all, pkg-js-tools provides a debhelper plugin that handles "dh --with nodejs". Until 0.7, it was used for dh_auto_test. Since version 0.8.6, it provides a dh_auto_install hooks that permits to automatically install node packages in the right place: /usr/share/nodejs or /usr/lib/<gnu-arch>/nodejs instead of old /usr/lib/nodejs. It also reads package.json to select automatically files to install. More than 90% node modules can be installed then without debian/install. A package that uses it for tests will probably have build failures and risks to install libraries in old and new place. Around 100 packages are affected, I prepared the update in salsa for those I have identified. I fill this request to prevent testing migration reject because of autopkgtest regressions. I'm not sure this is the good place or if a transition issue is needed in this case. If not, please forgive me for this inconvenience and close this issue. Cheers, Xavier Ben file: title = "pkg-js-tools"; is_affected = .depends ~ "pkg-js-tools"; is_good = .depends ~ "pkg-js-tools (>= 0.8.[6-9])"; is_bad = .depends ~ "pkg-js-tools";
