What the hell? How are you doing it? Have you tried using nvm instead? https://github.com/creationix/nvm
-
Wait, based on your previous screenshots I guess you're using Windows. Did you try to download the installer from node's site?
-
C0D4681467y@shellbug installing on a centos box, just seems to be slow as hell :(
your right i normally use windows though. -
@C0D4 alright, then you should try nvm. I never tried it on centos, but it should work.
-
This just made me lose my breath dude, seriously. I've installed node many times, on ubuntu, mint, windows, mac, and I never had to compile it myself.
-
Prime example regarding why I never compile shit myself. It gets frusteating when it starts to break for no reason.
-
Even without nvm it took me 3 minutes 2 of them <s>googling</s> duckduckgoing and 1 pasting stuff in the terminal
-
C0D4681467y@AleCx04 it wasn’t breaking, just taking a hell of a long time. I ended up giving up and went to bed instead.
Round 2! -
C0D4681467yRound 2: make and install took all of 5 minutes this time.
i guess it just got stuck last night.
