Does ohshit stand for something else clever? I know the Android API uses "What a Terrible Failure" to serve a similar function.

Haha, I laughed that there was "ohshite()", but they even have a convenient ohshitv().

We've all done it. That, and added comments apologizing to whoever has to maintain that one function...

I get "Cannot call method 'slice' of undefined" when I open the link.

I was actually digging into the dpkg source code out of curiosity a few months ago and was also amused by the function name. I didn't decide it worth posting, though.
