node.js RPM spec

• node.js rpm spec : https://github.com/vast-engineering/nodejs-rpm
• node.js source : http://nodejs.org/dist/

Vast Specifics

Tailored for Vast Specific paths to allow multiple major nodejs versions to co-exist peacefully under /data

Building the RPM

Distro support

Tested working (as sane as I could test for) on:

• RHEL/CentOS 7 x86_64
• RHEL/CentOS/SL/OL 6 x86_64
• RHEL/CentOS/SL/OL 5 x86_64
• Fedora 19 x86_64
  • This spec is tested under el7, el6 and el5 only.
  • However, Fedora15 or later work. maybe.
  • when you try to build on el5, must enable the EPEL repository.
