I would love to do that, but the reason behind the rename came from
https://bugs.debian.org/614907.

Feel free to ask TC to find a new solution.

Bug#862051: nodejs-legacy: possibly drop this package, now that ax25-node has been removed?

Package: nodejs-legacy
Version: 4.8.2~dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi maintainers,

Back in 2015, ax25-node (and the "node" package following) were removed citing
lack of activity:
https://packages.qa.debian.org/n/node/news/20150915T000109Z.html

Would it be possible to drop nodejs-legacy in the next Debian release and
rename nodejs back to node? IMO doing so would make working with JS programs
outside of Debian a lot easier.

Best,
James
