Product: Fedora https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=815018 --- Comment #51 from T.C. Hollingsworth <tchollingsworth@xxxxxxxxx> --- (In reply to comment #50) > Originally I was considering arguing for allowing Node.js to take over the > /usr/bin/node name, since it has a much higher user base than the amateur > radio package. However, after looking into other distribution packages, it's > become clear that they have all standardized on the 'nodejs' rename.

The only issue with this is that a lot of node software uses '#!/usr/bin/env node' and has to be manually patched ATM. But, now that other distros have the same problem perhaps npm could be patched to mangle shebang lines for stuff that goes in /usr/bin in a general way that's useful to everyone. > I've also corrected the dependency requirement on http-parser, which needs > to be 2.0+. I finally got an http-parser that passes all tests into updates-testing the other day so that should be ready to go. > T.C., thank you for the information about the NPM stuff.

(Vim has a a similar requirement to the additional requirement in npm's license so I doubt they'll have an issue with it.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
