CentOS, install nodejs latest

Question

i have problem with installation of latest version of node on CentOS 7

i run

yum remove nodesource-release* nodejs
yum clean all

command rpm -qa 'node|npm' shows nothing, so i run this command:

curl --silent --location https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo bash -xe -

but it still wants to install sudo yum install nodejs >> 2:6.17.1-1nodesource and not version 10.x

how to resolve this?

You probably have stale data in the yum cache, corresponding to an older version of Node.js from nodesource. You should clean it all using:

yum clean all

If that fails, you can manually delete the cache directory:

rm -rf /var/cache/yum

Then try the installation again.
