Not the maintainer, but I would suggest trying to build in a clean chroot. It builds fine for me that way.

Still having trouble with installing this package. I have yarn (1.22.10-1) and npm (7.11.2-1) installed on my system, but I get this error:

npm ERR! Invalid Version:
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /home/<user-name>/.npm/_logs/2021-05-02T21_12_58_012Z-debug.log
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().
    Aborting...

Looking at the npm log, it just says "Invalid Version:" I searched this error for npm and it seems to be sensitive to the format of the version number in the json package. From what I can tell, 7.53.0 is valid and is listed as such in the PKGBUILD. Yarn is also listed as a make dependency in this version so I'm at a loss as to what is causing the error.

I opted to install heroku-cli-bin instead, which installs just fine, but wanted to know what I'm missing here.

Actually @jplatte now I remember it has both because the install crashes if each section isn't installed with each specific packager. If the outer packaging tools aren't installed with yarn, the oclif-dev tools fail to build. And now that I wen't back to remove the npm dependency I remember now that if you just drop and try to run everything with yarn, it causes npm-shrinkwrap failures and fails there. Basically, when it comes down to it, the heroku cli maintainers are assholes. They force updates on you, and they can't stick to a package manager.

If you don't want both (though, like I said, impossible to actually only have yarn without npm as far as I'm aware) use heroku-cli-bin

@jplatte it has both because I forgot it was there.

It will be removed in the next release, but not worth releasing a new build just to take it out of makedepends; yarn requires nodejs anyways, and as far as I'm aware, it's not possible to have nodejs without npm since they're packaged together so it really doesn't change anything.

I have been having issues building 7.50.0. Interestingly, I get different errors when I try to build in a clean chroot than when building on my regular system. For the clean chroot build to work at all, I had to modify the custom function:

Not sure if the error comes from semver. Maybe the version is too recent? (I'm kind of a n00b at npm packaging.)

However, when trying to build in a clean chroot:

Any ideas on how to fix either of these issues? Am I the only one with these issues?

Is there a reason this uses both yarn install and npm install? If only yarn works / is supported for building this, why not use that consistently (and drop the make dep on npm)?

@patchcard2 nope, you're right, after fixing the exit problem by trapping it in a subcommand, yarn isnt added to the PATH for prepare to use when installed through npm. makedepends is the only option

@patchcard2 not everyone wants yarn, an npm package, installed through arch packages, instead of through npm, the actual package manager for yarn. This seemed like the cleaner way of checking that it was installed through either method

@zeteref Thank you! Adding yarn to make depends in PKGBUILD solves the problem.
