This happened on all three of my fedora machines when upgrading from F23
to F24.
I removed the packages (dnf remove nodejs);
If I remove nodejs, all other node packages will be removed. Fine. But when reinstalling, how can I reinstall exactly all the node packages? I would say best would
be to get a list of the removed node packages, then install this list.
Any tips to get such a list of packages to reinstall ?
I would make some notes of what nodejs packages you are using to make sure
that you reinstall them later.
Start w/ running
$ rpm -qa | grep -i nodejs | sort
and put it in a file for reference.
Then once you've done the dnf upgrade, reinstall nodejs referring to the
list that you created.
This is a general rule that should apply to similar situations.
PostGIS/PostgreSQL (worhorse software for me) both moved into major
releases that required extensive workarounds to the F23->F24 dnf upgrade
process. My (messy) notes available on request.

did the upgrade;
then reinstalled nodejs.
That worked each time.
fyi,
