Next week, I plan to upgrade Node.js from the 4.x LTS branch to the 5.x stable branch in Rawhide. This upgrade does break backwards-compatibility and thus will need re-testing of modules. Also, all native NPMs (those that are built with architecture-specific packages rather than noarch) will need to be rebuilt to pick up the new automatic dependency system we have implemented. Previously, native modules had to be rebuilt for every minor-version bump of Node.js, but we have tweaked the virtual Provides and Requires to only require a rebuild at major-version bumps. This will help significantly with the stable branch, which revs the minor release fairly often.
