- The Debian instructions don't work on Debian, as the repository that gets added only includes Ubuntu packages. (Attempting to use these also switches init systems and fouls up half the system.) - The building from source instructions fail in the form they're given, as npmn should instead (I think) be npm. - phantomjs is currently unavailable on the latest Debian stable and must be installed from source

- Also, node doesn't work, node-legacy is necessary for npm to work
In Debian Jessie you must install nodejs , npm and phantomjs from the source. Also using node install mathoid has not worked for me It does not pass the test, in addition, to the port is 10044
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:physikerwelt/mathoid
Did not work on Ubuntu 14.4, Ubuntu 16.4 and Debian 8.5. Further node.js in repositories don't work for mathoid installation in Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora 24 alpha and SL 7.2. Installation in SL 7.2 with latest node.js worked, see updated instructions.
When using \color{color}{stuff to color} mathoid colors the rest of the equation from \color on instead of just the "stuff to color". e.g.:
<math>x \color{blue}{=} 0</math>
results in a black "x" but a blue "= 0" instead of just the "=" being blue.
