for the last couple months Node.js and npm are currently BROKEN on RaspberryPi.

What version of node are you using and how are you trying to install it?

Current from default Rasbian repos.

Node.Js works fine with Raspberry Pi, just don’t install it from the default repos.

That may be the problem.

Use these instructions:

I’ve installed both v8 and v10 successfully multiple times on new Pis in the last few months.

I’ll give it a whirl. I was able to recreate the error 4 times so I just need to copy over the steps to recreate. I don’t have a lot of time to spend on it today.
