When installing node.js, it’s kind of unexpected to see:
Warning: brew installs are known to be buggy
Why brew is more buggy (say, comparing with port)?
Homebrew formulas are, for the most part, community maintained. That means they are constantly being changed or updated and liable to have errors. Node.js probably ran into some of these errors, but they were likely fixed quickly. MacPorts has a more formal process of inclusion but the main con is that it’s not nearly as updated.
