It seems that the standalone npm package hasn't been retired, which
creates a bit of a problem...
As things stand in F24 we have npm providing 0:3.5.4-5 and also nodejs
providing npm 1:2.15.5 and obsoleting npm < 0:3.5.4-6.
I'm not sure what happens if you update with dnf system-upgrade but if
you have both nodejs and npm installed and try and distro-sync to F24
then you will fail with:
Error: package nodejs-1:4.4.5-1.fc24.x86_64 obsoletes npm < 3.5.4-6
provided by npm-3.5.4-5.fc24.noarch
Because it tries to update both packages but the updated npm conflicts
with the obsolete in nodejs.
The workaround is to remove npm before upgrading, but we should retire
npm I think at least in rawhide - not sure if we can still do that in
F24 or if it is too late?
We should probably also find out what happens when using the official
upgrade method...
