Creating nodejs-chalk0 package and moving existing nodejs-chalk package to 1.1.x

[Jared K. Smith]

I'm still working on packaging up the dependencies for nodejs-ava and a
newer version of nodejs-tap -- but I've run into the problem that we have a
lot of packages that depend on  version 4.x of nodejs-chalk, and some of
the new dependencies I'm packaging up depend on chalk >= 1.

I'm proposing creating a new nodejs-chalk0 package that continues with the
0.4.0 branch for now, and that we move the existing nodejs-chalk package to
version.

I'll have a new nodejs-chalk0 package up for review shortly, and I already
have a locally installed copy of nodejs-chalk 1.1.1 so that piece is mostly
taken care of.

The one thing I'm unsure about is the lua pre-transaction scriptlet.  Can
someone please explain why they're needed, and whether I need them on both
nodejs-chalk0 and nodejs-chalk, or just one or the other?

Also, who has permissions to the nodejs-packaging repo to be able to add
chalk to the "multiver_modules" list?

Because it's replacing a directory with a symbolic link, and rpm can't 
cope with that so you have to help it by having pretrans delete the 
directory or it will fail to create the link.

It only needs to be in whichever package will be the default one and own 
the symlink.

I do.

The new nodejs-chalk0 package is up for review at Bugzilla issue number
1310124:

Spec URL:
https://jsmith.fedorapeople.org/Packaging/nodejs-chalk0/nodejs-chalk0.spec
SRPM URL:
https://jsmith.fedorapeople.org/Packaging/nodejs-chalk0/nodejs-chalk0-0.4...

Updated packages for the nodejs-chalk module (uncluding the lua
pre-transaction scriptlet) are at:

Spec URL:
https://jsmith.fedorapeople.org/Packaging/nodejs-chalk/nodejs-chalk.spec
SRPM URL:
https://jsmith.fedorapeople.org/Packaging/nodejs-chalk/nodejs-chalk-1.1.1...

I'd appreciate another set of eyes to make sure I haven't made any stupid
mistakes in the packaging.
