I get this error while trying to install libui-node with create-proton-app, I tried installing it externally but it failed that too. I have both gtk3+ installed and build-essential Platform: Xubuntu, 2019-02-09T14_07_45_513Z-debug.log

Same issue here on Win10: 2019-07-24T16_22_23_912Z-debug.log Tried using both Visual Studio 2015 and 2017. I've also tried reinstalling both npm and node-gyp.

Same issue here with Ubuntu 18.04, node v12.7.0, npm 6.10.0 2019-07-28T21_49_51_620Z-debug.log

I also tried completely uninstall node, npm, node-gyp and re-install them with nvm.

I technically have the same issue, but I was also trying to install libui-node while behind a corporate firewall AND without admin privileges AND as a result having to use older node, v8.11.something, Windows 7, so I don't think my encounter with this issue quite applies but it's at least something to think about later. Works fine on my macOS High Sierra where I'm not behind a firewall and I have admin privileges, though.

Directory permissions error? I've noted that there's a directory permissions error in the console output (not in the logs):

Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/libui-node/.libui'

Hope this is a helpful lead.

I also tried installing libui-node globally with sudo and too received the same permissions error when attempting to mkdir '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/libui-node/.libui'.

Extra data for me. Cannot install on Win10 1903 Node v12.13.0, seems to be nbind related.

Gives a huge amount of errors like error C2661: 'v8::Value::BooleanValue': no overloaded function takes 0 arguments (compiling source file ..\node_modules\nbind\src\reflect .cc) [C:\apps\node\v12.13.0\node_modules\libui-node\build\nbind.vcxproj] like the version of nbind used is old or something.

Also gives Warning: Missing input files: C:\apps\node\v12.13.0\node_modules\libui-node\build\Release\nbind.node without even bothering to check for any already-installed nbind (I have latest nbind installed globally).

Please update all the dependencies this project uses, including nbind and the latest version of libui too, so that we may try to install this on newer Node versions, thanks!
