buliding npm from source: some gcc fail probably

[roberto68]

I dl node from source so I extract it tried ./configure get this

 Traceback (most recent call last): 
  File "./configure", line 992, in <module> 
    configure_node(output) 
  File "./configure", line 530, in configure_node 
    o['variables']['gcc_version'] = 10 * cc_version[0] + cc_version[1] 
IndexError: tuple index out of range

I mainly did this cuase I have some dependency problems with some node modules depening on others so I did it this way remove node repo at all and try it from source

I wrote this a few days ago, including a section about Tumbleweed.

For TW, I describe configuring the special 13.2 nodejs repo, and installing nodejs which automatically pulls in "npm-bundle."
With the resulting npm, I've succesfully searched for packages and installed them from the official nodejs repos (not openSUSE).
