Help is broken in the bundled npm, so they're going to be shipping 0.6.4 soon: http://groups.google.com/group/nodejs/browse_thread/thread/d...

You might want to stick with the separate npm for now if you find yourself using "npm help" a lot.

I maintain a third-party node repo for Fedora: http://nodejs.tchol.org/

I tried to get it into Fedora proper, but node currently bundles their own slightly modified libev and c-ares, which is against Fedora's packaging policies.

Arch already has 0.6.3: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/i686/nodejs/

There is a Ubuntu PPA that tracks Node.js releases pretty closely.

0.4.12 in Debian unstable.

The npm package has been outdated at 0.2.19 for ages, so this merge will hopefully bring back a usable npm.

I believe the default version is 0.4.9. This is the output from node -v command on 11.10

does anyone know if npm is included with the windows install? This is very exciting.
