Node.JS + CentOS + node-waf

I have installed Node.JS on CentOS from source like this:

yum install gcc-c++ make git
cd /usr/local/src/
git clone git://github.com/joyent/node.git
cd node
./configure
make
make install

yet while installing modules via npm I get error:

sh: node-waf: command not found
npm ERR! [email protected] install: `node-waf configure install`
npm ERR! `sh "-c" "node-waf configure install"` failed with 127
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] install script.
npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the threads_a_gogo package,
npm ERR! not with npm itself.
npm ERR! Tell the author that this fails on your system:
npm ERR!     node-waf configure install
npm ERR! You can get their info via:
npm ERR!     npm owner ls threads_a_gogo
npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.

is this issue CentOS related, or what is possibly going wrong? This link suggests that this error should only happen if Node is not installed from source....which in this case it is.

node-waf is deprecated and was removed from node 0.10: https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/3475. You should open an issue with the package you are trying to use to get it updated to node-gyp.
