nodejs-current@edge is not working

Hi,

I am trying to use latest version of nodejs-current from edge repo but getting bellow error:

Any idea?

@tapas4java nodejs >= 8.5 requires libuv >= 1.14
See nodejs/node#14906

[tapas4java]

@danilobuerger How and where I can get libuv >= 1.14?

[danilobuerger]

apk add --no-cache --repository http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main libuv

My Dockerfile is like below, am I missing something??

FROM nginx:alpine

## Change alpine version to install latest node
RUN apk add --no-cache --repository http://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community nodejs-current-npm>8 &&\
    apk add --no-cache --repository http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main libuv>1.14

RUN node -v

Thanks @danilobuerger

Able to figure out the issue, the sequence matters it seems. Below works:

## Change alpine version to install latest node
RUN apk add --no-cache --repository http://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main libuv &&\
    apk add --no-cache --repository http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community nodejs-current-npm

It sounds like this is solved. But I'd also like to point out that it is generally a bad idea to mix repositories from edge and released versions. You will definitely run into libc dependency problems again at some point.
