The PPA ppa:chris-lea/node.js doesn't contains Vivid packages. Therefore remove the PPA via
the command below to prevent downgrading or uninstalling existing packages



sudo apt-add-repository -r ppa:chris-lea/node.js


Execute



sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:chris-lea/node.js


to remove the PPA without leaving anything behind.
