morgancraft:

The time has come to update my nodejs and as I was updating the docs for my project for other developers figured I’d post the instructions as well.

required ubuntu packages

sudo apt-get install g++ curl libssl-dev apache2-utils

cd into node directory package

wget http://nodejs.org/dist/node-v0.4.6.tar.gz
tar -xzvf node-v0.4.6.tar.gz
cd node-v0.4.6.tar.gz
./configure
make 
sudo make install
