How to install Pug on Ubuntu?

Question

linux

• Ubuntu 18.04.1LTS
  
• node.js v11.1.0
  
• npmv6.4.1
  

I'm trying to install Pug using the command:
sudo npm install pug
After a couple of minutes, the installation reaches about 60% and freezes (no response for more than an hour).

npm WARN tarball tarball data for [email protected]^1.0.0 (sha1-9lNNFRSCabIDUue+4m9QH5oZEpA=) seems to be corrupted. Trying one more time.

[            ......] - extract:core-js: WARN tarball tarball data for [email protected]^1.0.0 (sha1-9lNNFRSCabIDUue+4m9QH5oZEpA=) seems to be corrupted. Trying one more time.

Although if you install decamelize directly
sudo npm install decamelize
, then the installation goes without problems (but version 2.0.0 is installed).
Is it possible to somehow download the package Pugnot through the terminal?

Answer 1

The following commands helped:

1. Clear the package manager cache
   

   $ npm cache clean --force
   $ npm install --force --verbose --no-bin-links

   
   
2. Install boring packages of the latest versions
   

   $ npm install [email protected]
   $ npm install [email protected] -g

   
   

Result :

$ pug -V
pug version: 2.0.3
pug-cli version: 1.0.0-alpha6
