Bug#979551: [Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#979551: node-babel7: update-alternatives set up fails

For now I propose to remove alternatives for manpages, later I'll use "--slave" (with node-babel8 release)

Yes you are. My way of writing can be off-putting - it may sound like I know better than anyone, but I really don't know all - and even if my knowledge about Debian rules is "right", it is still relevant to get *opinions* to maybe *change* the rules. > Using Debian official images with docker/podman is a use case we > should support as it is one significant way for Debian to stay > relevant in this post-devops world. > > Also see: > - https://hub.docker.com/_/debian/#Image_Variants > - https://github.com/debuerreotype/debuerreotype/issues/10 I agree that Debian official material should work. Your 2 URLs point elsewhere than the official debian.org domain - could it be that the image you used is not "official Debian" mirrored at docker.com but maybe instead "official Docker" based on Debian? - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: signature

I think yadd already uploaded a version of node-babel7 with separate node-babel7-runtime binary package. But it has not cleared NEW yet. -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

A Debian install with man pages excluded seems to be an unsupported system: Whatever hooks applied to do that trick should be extended to handle update-alternatives - not the packages providing alternatives nor the update-alternatives mechanism itself! If you disagree, then please try locate passages in Debian Policy to support your view. - Jonas Sorry I am not qualified to respond. Using Debian official images with docker/podman is a use case we should support as it is one significant way for Debian to stay relevant in this post-devops world.
