I am using latest Xubuntu, and I could not install the Node package. Console output is:

/bin/sh: node: command not found

Are you sure node is in your PATH?

scovetta commented 9 years ago

Ubuntu (and Xubuntu) packages NodeJS as 'nodejs', not 'node' (as 'node' conflicts with another package). As per http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21168141/can-not-install-packages-using-node-package-manager-in-ubuntu, you can either install nodejs-legacy or symlink /usr/bin/node to /usr/bin/nodejs.

I've uninstalled node (I don't know what is it) and installed nodejs-legacy - problem solved, thanks, dudes!
