Test Installation Scripts passing

This repository contains the instructions to install the NodeSource N|solid and Node.js Binary Distributions via
.rpm and .deb as well as their setup and support scripts.

New Update ⚠️
We'd like to inform you of important changes to our distribution repository nodesource/distributions.

What's New:

Package Changes: DEB and RPM packages are now available under the nodistro codename. We no longer
package the installer coupled to specific versions. This means you can install Node.js on almost any distro that
meets the minimum requirements.
Installation Scripts: Back by popular demand, the installation scripts have returned and are better than ever.
See the installation instructions below for details on how to use them.
RPM Package Signing Key: The key used to sign RPM packages has changed. We now sign packages using
SHA256, providing better support to the community.
Questions and concerns: To resolve questions and discuss concerns about this update we've opened this
discussion space New distribution's packages

FAQ
Q: Are the scripts deprecated?

A: The scripts are deprecated for the versions of Node.js that are currently outdated. While the packages for thes
versions still exist, we no longer provide support for them. Our support is exclusively dedicated to the active
Node.js versions, which, as of today, are 18, 20, and 21. Users utilizing these versions can confidently use our
scripts, but we encourage those using older versions to upgrade for continued support and the best experience.

Q: How can I configure the repository manually?

A: If you prefer to manually configure the repository, we have a detailed guide to assist you through the process.
Please visit our Repository Manual Installation Guide for comprehensive instructions. This guide is designed to
provide step-by-step directions to ensure a smooth and successful manual setup of the repository for your Node
environment.

Q: How do I pin to specific versions of Node.js?

A: Please take a look at wiki
