In hopes of being able to create a ppa that reduces the pain level a bit, I tried rebuilding a newer nodejs for ubuntu 18.04 using the debian/ubuntu nodejs git repo.
Using the source from 19.04's runs into quite a few test failures ( https://github.com/nodejs/help/issues/1760 ). debian/10.4.0_dfsg-2 has a few test failures ( https://github.com/nodejs/help/issues/1767 ), but seems promising. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with nodejs debian packaging, and I'm a bit mystified by the test-assert failure. Where's the best place to discuss a backport like that? ** Bug watch added: github.com/nodejs/help/issues #1760 https://github.com/nodejs/help/issues/1760 ** Bug watch added: github.com/nodejs/help/issues #1767 https://github.com/nodejs/help/issues/1767 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1794589 Title: libssl1.0-dev conflicts libssl-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodejs/+bug/1794589/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
