Is sudo supposed to be required for globally installed packages on OS X? #3139

Closed

Description

@domenic

Several coworkers have downloaded the default Node.js install from nodejs.org, and can't install packages globally without using sudo. They're running Mac OS X.

We've been solving this by either: (1) chowning directories left and right; or (2) nuking their existing installation and telling them to use homebrew.

Is this intended behavior?
