Dear Maintainer,

When I try to upgrade the experimental packages I got this error

I just got the same trouble, and now i really don't remember
the rationale behind:

Breaks:
 libnode64,
 libnode72

Besides both libnode64 and libnode72 having a file in common:
usr/share/systemtap/tapset/node.stp
which could better be shipped by nodejs package instead.
