Last week, I retired the `nodejs` package from EPEL 7 because it was (I believed) stuck on Node.js 6.x due to insufficient dependency support. Apparently, this broke a few things like uglify-js[1], so I spent today looking into whether I could get Node.js 16.x to work (the latest LTS release) and it turns out that I can indeed bludgeon it into working. I have a COPR[2] with a build of Node.js 16.x for EPEL 7 available to try while I await releng unretiring[3] the package. Please note: Node.js 16.x is a SIGNIFICANT version jump. It is very probably that some of your Node packages may not work properly against it. I urge anyone who is maintaining any such packages in EPEL 7 to try them out against the aforementioned COPR prior to my building it in EPEL proper.
