See IPFS getting-started. If anything goes wrong, try using: http://ipfs.io/docs/install.
Warning: this module uses the latest version of ipfs. If there is a strong need to vendor an older version, let us know. We care about versions very much :( but for a number of reasons, this is easier for us all right now.
Warning: the file bin/ipfs is a placeholder, when downloading stuff, it gets replaced. so if you run node install.js it will then be dirty in the git repo. Do not commit this file, as then you would be commiting a big binary and publishing it to npm. (TODO: add a pre-commit or pre-publish hook that warns about this)
