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.
The actual set of packages that need to be rebuilt is actually very small - just a dozen or so modules that have binary components.
Most modules are pure javascript, which don't need rebuilding and where doing so will often prove nothing as we don't always have tests.
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.
Well the question is, will the non-LTS node branch ever work for us given then need to provide 13 months of support - how long is the lifetime of the non-LTS branches?
