[camohub]

Can somebody tell me please how to fix it? Excluding downgrade.

[camohub]

Is anybody here?

[z639]

There is a similar issues here nodejs/node-gyp#1941 and the general advice was to use and older version of node. Although it doesn't look to be node itself but one of the dependences.

[z639]

I'm trying to find a solution to a different repo without a downgrade too, but so far no luck. Let me know if you have any joy with that.
