...the iojs formula doesn't have the post_install stanza that node has.

...the iojs formula doesn't have the post_install stanza that node has.

It's intentional. The iojs formula really isn't designed to support npm at this point in time, and likely won't be until we can do something like #36369. At least 3 other substantial ideas have been put on the table, and rejected. Either prepend your $PATH, use something like nvm or use the iojs tap, at your own risk.

Closing per the above; #36369 is the place for this to be tracked.
