This specific issue will stop being a problem when node 4 is merged anyway as I understand it, as that has PPC support?
That's my understanding.
Incidentally, is there a good reason why we don't merge the side tag given that all the binary issues are sorted and we seem to be doing the npm stack in the main tag anyway?
Good question -- I knew that we were doing all the npm *dependencies* in the main tag in rawhide, but I didn't know if we needed to do npm itself in the side tag. Without really thinking about it too hard this morning, I can't think of a reason not to merge the side tag.
The reason for the side-tag was to deal with rebuilds for packages that were not compatible with both 0.10.x and 4.x. That seems to have failed anyway, since we have nodejs-got in Rawhide requiring 4.x+
The remaining problem is still npm *itself*, since I'm not certain if the current version of npm in Rawhide will work with 4.x, so I'd prefer not to merge until we get that built.
I'm working on the last couple packages today, so I suspect we'll be ready to build npm very soon.
