Jerome, If you want to have a little more control, either compile from source or grab a binary: http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.7/ I tend to put them under a directory structure like: $HOME/.local/nodejs/0.10.7 To make that version active in your shell, you add the path to that version's "bin" directory to your $PATH, and add "share/man" to $MANPATH. To switch to a new version (if you ever need to do that -- most people do not, but some OCD people like me do), you can update the $PATH and $MANPATH variables. To automate that process, you can check out any of the available version switchers for node. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
