Stable Node.js ARMv6 download link missing.

Page: https://nodejs.org/en/download/stable/

Clicking "ARMv6" results in a 404.

Yea it looks like those builds are literally missing. I filed an issue with the build group to see if maybe they just did not make it over or at least we can see if they built successfully already.

nodejs/build#326

/cc @jasnell did those not get promoted?

Yeah, armv6l binaries are waiting in staging, must have not quite been finished when 5.6.0 was released (which we do allow to happen occasionally). This'll have to wait until @jasnell is awake and able to promote the builds, they can only be promoted and signed by the individual doing the release.

In the meantime, you can fetch the exact binaries from Jenkins which makes its own copies during build: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/389/nodes=pi1-raspbian-wheezy/

Once these get promoted the website links will work so I will wait a few hours (until I wake back up for real) and if we still have not seen them promoted I can consider pr to update the website links to be direct to jenkins. I just dont want to do it now if it's going to be all fixed in the morning and avoid the revert back again.

It's 2am for James, so give him a bit of time.

[jasnell]

Promoted! Sorry for the delay. Had been planning to get it done last night but I succumbed to the cold medicine and crashed early.

[jasnell]

(I'll update the blog posts a bit later this morning)

[wonderdogone]

Awesome. It's all working now

@jasnell I have done exactly the same thing with these builds in the past, on multiple occasions, sans the cold medicine. "I'll do that later when it builds" then I get a ping on GitHub or Twitter or email from a user who can't find them. Given this pattern and the fact that the downloads page doesn't care whether they exist or not but still links to them I think we might need to enshrine in the release process that you have to wait for armv6l to finish.

[jasnell]

I think that would be a good idea.

you mean wait for armv6l to release officially or announce on website? Maybe thats the same thing?

[wonderdogone]

but yes I agree with you @jasnell

[jasnell]

Wait for the arm release builds to complete before promoting and
announcing, so it's done all at once.
