If you are familiar with nvm, you could try

NVM_NODEJS_ORG_MIRROR=https://unofficial-builds.nodejs.org/download/ nvm install 12

This worked for me:

NVM_NODEJS_ORG_MIRROR=https://unofficial-builds.nodejs.org/download/release nvm install 12

I use a variation of this for my own purposes in some places: https://gist.github.com/rvagg/742f811be491a49ba0b9 if you want to install bare then you could use that and replace nodejs.org with unofficial-builds.nodejs.org and make sure it gets 'arch' correct (that may need some hardwiring). Or use the NVM solution above.

I used this on lubuntu and it worked.

This worked for me:

NVM_NODEJS_ORG_MIRROR=https://unofficial-builds.nodejs.org/download/release nvm install

And if you use n, you can do, e.g.:

 sudo NODE_MIRROR=https://unofficial-builds.nodejs.org/download/release/ n stable

Collecting these recipes for a How to Install section on the front page might be helpful to people.

I have a shell script I use to install official and unofficial nodejs builds.

https://github.com/bnielsen1965/nodejs-install

It provides for multiple versions and supports linux systems with alternatives or simple symlinks.
