I´m fairly new to Node, but I´ve seen several people recommend using
Volta (https://github.com/volta-cli/volta) or the older but slower nvm
(node version manager: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) to manage Node
versions, similar to how you can use virtualenv to install multiple
versions of python in parallel.

Volta appears to be somewhat more modern and resolves some issues with nvm, but 
honestly I´m new to both so I don´t have much experience with either.

Perhaps it might be possible to offload packaging and dependency
management from Ubuntu maintainers to these third-party tools.
