Well, upstream may have bad feelings about it, but from my point of
view Debian did the right thing, and by helping realize that "node"
was a poor name choice for an executable, actually helped upstream on
the longer run.
In any case Debian users of node.js are users of node.js (welcome to
the tautology club).
As upstream, one reason I value packaging early my own software under
Debian is precisely that it helps me spot conflicts with unrelated
software.
Kind regards, Thibaut.
