Node.js v20 and Other Updated Packages Require New IBM i Repositories
As we mentioned in our article on installing ODBC via yum, the latest IBM i open source packages require new repositories.
A notable example is Node.js v20. When we hear users say, “I don’t see Node.js v20 listed in available packages, and yum returns ‘No package nodejs20 available‘,” the reason invariably is that the new repositories, ibmi-base
and ibmi-release
, have not been installed.
