To sump up view points from upstream and from debian : *it's your problem* Maybe a solution would be to define a kind of "exclusive alternative" : if one wants some "node" link, that points to /usr/sbin/node (x)or to /usr/bin/nodejs, he could choose which one's the best in a postinst routine, common to both packages. On might object "node" would have a different meaning, depending on the packages installed ; still, nodejs or x25node (if its maintainer cares to follow) would be there, and unambiguous. Do that notion of "exclusive alternatives" is insane, or been discussed before ? Jérémy. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
