So … without require.js I get an error and with require.js I get an error … Now what?

We have restructured the repository so that there is no longer a dist folder. Please access Chart.js builds with a CDN or by downloading from the releases page.

Closing because an acceptable answer has been provided and the problem appears to be solved.

@MaxBondarchuk can you elaborate and/or share a test case of the issue which is still not fixed? we brought back dist files in tags and releases since 2.3.0, Sept. 2016, so loading dist/Chart.min.js with RequireJS is supposed to work without the need to build anything on your side.

Really … It does not run on my web server … so, nothing solved as of now.
