That's one of the reasons why I'd prefer us to use a package to do it.

Each nodejs package could have a subpackage
nodejs<vermajor>-unversioned-command, which has the following stanzas:

Provides: nodejs-unversioned-command
Conflicts: nodejs-unversioned-command

And the default nodejs would have a "Requires:
nodejs-unversioned-command" with a Suggests on the versioned package.
