[Solved] nodejs-0.8.12-2 and v8, npm install results in segfault

Hi all,

Just updated nodejs to latest nodejs-0.8.12-2 - the one that requires v8 as a separate pkg. (update was part of a pacman -Syu)

architecture: x86_64
nodejs-0.8.12-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
v8-3.14.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz


Installing any node module with npm results in a segmentation fault. eg:

$ npm install buffet
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/buffet
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/buffet
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/buffet/-/buffet-0.4.6.tgz
Segmentation fault


Downgraded to previous (nodejs 0.8.12-1) pkg as a functional workaround.

EDIT: Have reported in the arch bugtracker.

And I've assigned your bug report to myself. (I've no idea why I didn't test npm before pushing new packages, sorry.)

Since this package is on the table, I'd also like to point out that nodejs-0.8.12-1 is incompatible with nodemon.

I'm only saying this as not to simply revert back.

Cheers

@Barthalion: I was goint to add a comment to the bug tracker when I saw you actually fixed it. I actually commented the shared v8 lines too, so that's why it worked. So thanks.
