Shebang / interpreter name in Ubuntu 14.04

[1pakch]

In my Ubuntu 14.04 the shebang line

#!/usr/bin/env node

does not work. What works is

#!/usr/bin/env nodejs

Weird. How did you install it?

The above was true for me too after doing the following.

sudo apt-get install npm
sudo npm -g livedown

Appears that 'node' is in the nodejs-legacy package on Ubuntu 14.04. I installed nodejs-legacy and original shebang line worked.

sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy

Somewhat confusingly, the nodejs usage text still reads for v0.10.25:

Usage: node [options] [ -e script | script.js ] [arguments] 
       node debug script.js [arguments]

my guess is that the binary has a different name, due to the fact that there's another package with the same name. See node package details
