Repacks a BlueJeans package to make it install-able under Debian.

if [ -z "$*" ]; then echo "Pass in the path to a BlueJeans Debian package to fix it."; exit 1; fi

filename=$1
newfilename=${filename:0:(-4)}-fixed.deb
echo "This will remove the libnss3 check from BlueJeans package $filename"

# This is all needed because BlueJeans uses a preinstall script to run
#    dpkg -s libnss3
# which returns multiple packges with multiarch enabled, so it ends up printing an error
# and returning code 2. This causes the installation to bail out.
# Interestingly, libnss3 is already a depenency of the package's DEBIAN/control file.
