missing file: device.min.js (building for Fedora 27)
#I am trying to build v0.7.51 on Fedora 27. I'm getting this error, and I feel like something is skipping over the device.js directory during the build, but I can't seem to figure it out (I am a node.js n00b btw).
Note: I am working with the local install of bower and gulp instead of installing them globally (cuz, global == root which is just not the right way of doing things). Even if I did install them globally (I did attempt that once and then backed out all the changes), I get the same results. This is what I see.

I've gone through many hoops trying to build this. The code is very dated at this point. I am not optimistic that I can build straight from source without extraordinary effort. Sadly.
I set up a vm with Fedora 28 over the weekend. Other than https://github.com/Laverna/laverna/issues/963, I was able to build the master branch just fine. I did do the global installs though.
Seemed to work with no globals:

I wish I had some sort of suggestions at this point. Are you still on Fed 27, or did you upgrade to 28 yet? Did you use the yum version of nodejs and npm?

F28. I always install literally everything via RPM and DNF though, for example device.min.js is not available via RPM. I haven't looked at this issue in some time though, so.. maybe when/if I get some free time in the next week I will play with it again. NodeJS is an abomination of packaging unfriendly dependencies.
