Cannot install on Apple's new M1 chip about node-bin-gen

[aredridel]

Ugh. A bug in https://github.com/aredridel/node-bin-setup — I'll look into it.

I am likewise running into the same issue. The relevant portion of the log appears to be this:

It should be node-bin-darwin-arm64; however this required an update to node-bin-setup, so if that's still cached or at version 1.0.0, that'd be the cause. Update that and it should work.

[aredridel]

Try now: I just pushed an update to node-bin-setup that should fix it.

Thanks, that did the trick! I ran npm update node-bin-setup and now all of npm i [email protected], npm i [email protected], and npm i node@18 work like a charm :)

I'm still getting

npm ERR! Error: Cannot find module 'node-darwin-arm64/package.json'

for npm i [email protected], npm i [email protected], and npm i node@18 on my M1, but haven't totally convinced myself it's not my fault somehow yet :P
