deasync install script fails when NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS is set

[eidottermihi]

Running npm install on an project using deasync fails, when Node environment variable NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS is set:

$ export NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS=my_ca_chain.crt

$ npm install

> node ./build.js

Notes:

• when running without NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS everything is working fine
• my_ca_chain.crt CA file exists and is fine

Oddly enough, I'm having this same issue (albeit with a different setup). I'm running a Caddy Docker container and a NuxtJS docker container. I use the temp certs the Caddy container generates and mount them in the Nuxt container to use them for local development. In my case, I sat the NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS to the mounted volume path, and the deasync error is what I also see. I've since unset the env variable, and it seems to be working properly.
