I have updated the package, skipping the test part. It should now build just fine.

After seeing consulting through other nodejs packages, it seems like the test part in unnecessary.

This package should work as how it's being tested upstream by web-ext developer.

If you have some dependency issues with node-lts-iron, what helped in my case was to clear yay cache (~/.cache/yay/) and reinstalling.
