Title: Node.js update upgrades installed version
Post by: L.A on May 22, 2024, 02:37:03 AM
Hey!

We have a problem where we deploy updates for node.js versions.
Some users have node.js 20 LTS installed, but if a new update for eg. node.js 22 is released, this update seems to upgrade their versions to ver 22 and overwrites.
Maybe some kind of detection issue?

This causes some issues, especially for developers where some libries are release specific and they stop working.

Is this an intended way to work, or maybe a bug?
Do you need some more information?

best regards,

Thank you, We sure did! :D
Had completely missed that one and that this was a thing. The "Node.js Latest" is now disabled, the update revoked and hopefully the devs can get of my back.
