Node-Red Installer/Example problem

[tjshippy]

I had this library running on my Node-Red server, I was using the example provided here: https://github.com/martin-doyle/node-red-contrib-aedes/blob/master/examples/aedes_simple.json then after trying to change the default port back to 1883 - after a deploy, it said the Aedes Broker node not found.

I rebooted my system and eventually tried to reinstall the library and now I am getting the error below in the install log. Based on the scorecard, this should run on Nodejs v12.0.0 or greater. Did something change today? WTH?:

node-red-contrib-aedes requires Nodejs12. But as you see in the logs aedes requires Nodejs14 minimum.
