Unable to npm Install project. (node-pre-gyp problem)

[crazyrabbitLTC]

I am trying to npm install after running git clone on the repository.

The installation always fails with:

npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! [email protected] install: `node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] install script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

I've tried a number of node-pre-gyp solutions from stack overflow, but when it comes to installing on this package, I can't get it to work.

Would anyone have any solutions I could try?

I am running OSX Mavricks

thanks!

The same problem I got. It's still there after trying node v8/v10/v12. How to resolve it?

I use nvm to control the node version. After switching to v8.16.0, npm install will run normally.

Any updates? Is the MultiSigWallet only usable with node v8?

hi! the current library used for ledger has a dependency for node-hid that makes it not compatible with newer versions of Node.

This is a break change, would make it unusable with older firmwares of ledger and also would mean some refactor of the code base.

We are currently not performing major updates of the repo

Many thanks for your input Denis! I guess this is the node-hid issue you're referring to?

node-hid/node-hid#266

It would be nice to put an item in the FAQ section on the front page. Many people switched to node v10.
