Thanks for taking a stab at this! The fact that we have to use unofficial Debian packages is really worrying, of course; we most likely will have to transition to a different DB backend (e.g., MongoDB is we want to stay in a similar paradigm) since RethinkDB is going nowhere (even the fork, RebirthDB, seems largely inactive and doesn't publish packages through a signed repo).
Let me poke at this a bit more and see if I can get the npm install working before merging.
Debian has updated to Buster and Rethink has an official package
Updated vm to stretch, updated package location for rethinkdb since there's no package in debian archives, update node to version 8. Setcap and npm install commands are commented out as they both created issues. Will need to run npm install on host before starting vm to work in current state.
Confirmed to work on debian testing host.
