Packaging nodejs code, how do I prevent lintian from complaining about ./node_modules? That sounds fragile. You can tell lintian to only report more serious issues, which is far better suited to an environment like that. Lintian warnings are entirely normal, your package is expected to collect new warnings from newer lintians, and you probably don't want those causing your builds to fail. |

Packaging nodejs code, how do I prevent lintian from complaining about ./node_modules? Those lintian warnings look totally legitimate. There's no reason to suppress them, unless you are concerned that other, bigger issues, are hiding in the noise. There's no requirement to be lintian-clean, it's simply a sign that you are doing things well. |

Stuck in the middle of any installation [Quantal] The problem is during gconf2's postinst script, so have a look at /var/lib/dpkg/info/gconf2.postinst, fix it / add debugging, and run sudo dpkg --configure gconf2 to get it to try again. |

Is it possible to continue “debian/rules binary” from the middle? There's no general solution, that depends on the package. |

How can I programatically determine which Ubuntu Versions are still supported? In addition, for situations where you need this information offline, there's the distro-info package. (In lucid, the distro-info commands are in the ubuntu-dev-tools package. |

Why would dpkg not auto-rename .conf files on --unpack on an installed package? What matters is that it isn't configured. Not precisely how much it is configured. It's perfectly acceptable for a sysadmin to provide a configuration file for a package before unpacking it, for example. |
