Maybe?
Having nodejs in an SCL (or eventually module) would certainly help
with versioning issues going forward. However, given Fedora has
nodejs in the base repository today, Stephen is still left with a hard
choice here. If his repoquery magic is correct then I think reverting
to 4.x at the base level for F24 is likely the right idea.
I do like the idea of having 5.x and 6.x in an SCL or module or COPR
(all somewhat variations on a theme) though.
Would it be possible to try a nodejs 6.x build of everything in a
side-tag or something? My understanding (based on the changelog) is
that things should generally work, as while the ABI broke, most of the
API remained the same.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the idea of using SCLs to support newer
environments in Fedora. I'd prefer if SCLs were used to support older
ones, with newer ones being the default.
