That sounds plausible to me. I don't think it matters which one is the
symlink. For some some reason, on my own system I have a shell script
called node in my path that execs nodejs, that also seems to work fine.

Or maybe a Breaks, since "This use of Breaks will inform higher-level
package management tools that the broken package must be upgraded before
the new one." (7.3)
