Installation can be quite an ordeal (sudo | sudo --ignore-scripts and update | sudo --user=$(whoami)) about tldr-node-client

Is it solved in #119 ?

Yep :) Thanks a lot for your detailed report. Sorry that you had to go through all that trouble to install it. I know this has been a pain point for long. I just pushed the fix yesterday and will do a minor point release today.

Just one more thing - You mention installing with sudo and as normal user as two different ways. I don't think those can be termed as different per se. Any command can be prepended with a sudo. But that doesn't create a different command. In this case, depending on the permissions of the user's /usr/local/lib, one adds or does not add sudo.

And please let me know where you found the --ignore-scripts method. Its an old one which was superceded by the --user option.

Just published the 1.7.1 release. Closing the issue.

Thanks, 1.7.1 works like a charm.

You are right, the commands are the same, only the environment differ. In this particular case the path to the home directory is important.

The --ignore-scripts was mentioned in discussion #91 (comment) (March 2016).
