This should be resolved in current releases. The CLI now shows a clear message about Node.js version requirements instead of the cryptic ReferenceError: File is not defined, and Linux installs now use a native binary that doesn't depend on your system Node.js version. If you're still seeing this issue, please feel free to reopen.
