Any hope for this?

(In reply to Alexey Vyskubov from comment #1)

Hi Alexey,


It is possible that fnm is not functional on FreeBSD because they don't maitain binaries for FreeBSD. Also it isn't clear if their binary downloads are secure, i.e. do they check cryptographic fingerprints.

Now when I look again it isn't even clear why it is needed, because node can be installed with 'pkg install node{16,18,20}'.

Let's see what does the upstream say.
