Feature Description

Target October/November 2024
+1 from my side. I'd like to do it, but I've never build a debian package before and so, the curve is a bit long to me. But I'll try t folk and just make the changes you did for Node v20 just for v22
What I'm wondering about - Homebridge is a Node application. Why did you decide to bundle Node instead of making it a dependency for the package?
I'm not sure about how people are using Homebridge. I use it in a docker environment and so I was wondering too, why the docker base image wasnt a node image but Ubuntu. I don't want to criticize that, I'm just wondering about the design decision.
@trickert76 With homebridge-apt-pkg, we are sandboxing our own implementation of NodeJS outside of the OS. So that any changes with other packages do not interfere or break people's existing homebridge implementations.
