how to install node v14 on arch docker base

I need nodejs for my app. And it is restricted to node14 because of meteor version. And i couldnt found an arch distro with node14. I tried to install it with below commands but it gots error and i couldnt figured out. How can i use node14 with arch dokcer images.

my code in dockerfile is :

WORKDIR /app

# Clone the Node.js source code from the official repository
RUN git clone https://github.com/nodejs/node.git

# Change to the Node.js source code directory
WORKDIR /app/node
RUN git checkout v16.4.0
# Build and install Node.js from source
RUN ./configure
RUN make
RUN make install

# Cleanup
RUN rm -rf /app/node

my long error ends with:

477.1 ../deps/v8/src/base/macros.h:373:47: note: ‘uintptr_t’ is defined in header ‘<cstdint>’; did you forget to ‘#include <cstdint>’?
477.1 rm 6c7bbe92ac8ea5f2918c7b11e3843a9f1edb602c.intermediate

Re: how to install node v14 on arch docker base

You could try using the EOL nodejs-lts-fermium PKGBUILD.  I have no idea if it still builds.
Is there no way to use meteor with a version of nodejs that is not EOL?  Note Arch is also in the process of removing nodejs-lts-gallium https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/79684.

That error is probably because gcc 13.x made changes in how C++ header files are handled.
see https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-13/porting_to.html for details how to work around that.

There may be other compile errors that are harder to fix.
