Unfortunately, I've got some applications that need a pretty new version. (you know how these web-scripters always need the fanciest newest features, just to save a few keystrokes :o) Meanwhile, I've got it packaged (now lets see whether it still works in the pbuilder env ;-)). A few things still anoying me: I yet have hardcode the version number in the pathes in *.install files. BTW: I'm yet unsure whether it's wise to have everything under prefix /usr/lib/nodejs/nodejs-$version, or it should be splitted out into the individual FHS components like that * /usr/bin/nodejs-$version * /usr/man/man1/nodejs-$version.1 * /usr/share/doc/nodejs-$version/ * ... An still open question is how to cope w/ the modules search pathes. I guess (not tested yet) it will now look at /usr/lib/nodejs-$version/ (haven't applied the FHS patch yet). Perhaps it should be changed to: var paths = ['/usr/lib/nodejs/nodejs-$version/lib','/usr/lib/nodejs'] --mtx -- Pkg-javascript-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-javascript-devel
