Big Node.js jump coming to EPEL 7

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Last week, I retired the `nodejs` package from EPEL 7 because it was
(I believed) stuck on Node.js 6.x due to insufficient dependency
support. Apparently, this broke a few things like uglify-js[1], so I
spent today looking into whether I could get Node.js 16.x to work (the
latest LTS release) and it turns out that I can indeed bludgeon it
into working. I have a COPR[2] with a build of Node.js 16.x for EPEL 7
available to try while I await releng unretiring[3] the package.

Please note: Node.js 16.x is a SIGNIFICANT version jump. It is very
probably that some of your Node packages may not work properly against
it. I urge anyone who is maintaining any such packages in EPEL 7 to
try them out against the aforementioned COPR prior to my building it
in EPEL proper.
