Arch Linux User Repository

The nodejs-lts-boron dependency conflicts with nodejs, which I need. For the latter reason I will try installing slap via npm by typing npm install slap.

If you remove the "=6.9.4" part from the nodejs-lts-boron dependency, it compiles fine, otherwise you're left unable to install it or build it. So, I am informing people who wish to use it to do so themselves momentarily and for the Maintainer to fix the PKGBUILD accordingly.

It's because on https://github.com/slap-editor/slap/blob/master/package.json The package called node-gyp it's not declare like dependencie on package.json, I don't know if are just need on arch linux If run the follow comman: $ ls /usr/lib/node_modules | grep "node-gyp" | wc -l You can look 1 if are install with npm node-gyp, 0 if are not installed like as node module Or if you already have NodeJS installed on your Arch Linux you can do it with the follow comman: $ sudo npm install -g slap@latest It's better install with yaourt on Arch but if you want test the slap, you could use npm to install it Note: build-essential equivalent in Arch: $ sudo pacman -Sy base-devel

@nashley odd that it should do that. Can you check your /tmp partition with df and make sure it's a decent size? I expect it'll just be a tempfs mount like mine. Anyway, it won't compile right now npm being a memory hog aside. This is the issue I'm currently experiencing: https://github.com/slap-editor/slap/issues/325

I'm also having issues building the package. I've uploaded the console output and relevant log here: https://gist.github.com/nashley/710cf989147d52c4f9b0aa7ab7564d57 https://gist.github.com/nashley/1268e606c4103f52762f2df8725ab36f It complains about not having enough free space, but I have 8GB of RAM and 10GB of swap, and according to htop, my memory usage barely increases. Do I really need to feed it more swap?

this fails to build with various error messages. installing direct via git fails as well (on my system.) can you check upstream?
