--- Comment #1 from T.C. Hollingsworth <tchollingswo...@gmail.com> ---
When we introduce parallel-installable library packages of any language in
Fedora, we typically package the older version as a separate SRPM, and leave
the unversioned name for the latest version of the package.  The other multiply
versioned nodejs-* packages follow this general rule-of-thumb, e.g. uglify-js
(2)/uglify-js1 and nodejs-nan (1)/nodejs-nan0.

I'd prefer it if this package would be consistent with the other two multiply
versioned packages, and have nodejs-colors (1) and nodejs-colors0.  You can
then have nodejs-colors0 `Obsoletes: nodejs-colors < 1` for a smooth
transition.

Yes, please always keep the version the same in released Fedoras and move the
symlink to the newest version in unreleased versions.
