Remember, this "bb-node-red-installer" is not a normal debian package..

it's internally calling "nodejs npm install node-red@xyz_version" as root..

So a "big" no-no in the debian/ubuntu world.

But we did it because users requested it..

"2015-11-12" was before we upgraded to nodejs 0.12.x, so by default it has
nodejs 0.10.x*

anywho, i tried to replicate what you did last time, but it worked for me.

We don't have enough developers as-is right now and i know it works on the
latest snapshots..
