Unable to build on ArchLinux

[tyhawk]

I'm trying to build opensubtitles-downloader on ArchLinux. Tried both the PKGBUILD in the AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/opensubtitles-uploader) as well as manually from source, but I am running into a problem. Building (with NPM) hangs right at the start. Strangely enough, I was able to build the current version without problems about 2 months ago.

(⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂) ⠼ idealTree:opensubtitles-uploader-2.6.0: sill idealTree buildDeps

I wonder what the issue is, wether a certain NPM package (version) is unable to be fetched or another issue. I'm not excluding an issue with dependent package versions Arch is using, and I am open to suggestions to better troubleshoot this issue.

So far, I found this in the logs:

24 timing npm:load:logFile Completed in 7ms
25 timing npm:load:timers Completed in 0ms
26 timing npm:load:configScope Completed in 0ms
27 timing npm:load Completed in 79ms
28 timing arborist:ctor Completed in 1ms
29 timing arborist:ctor Completed in 1ms
30 timing idealTree:init Completed in 31ms
31 timing idealTree:userRequests Completed in 0ms
32 silly idealTree buildDeps
33 silly fetch manifest detect-lang@^1.2.0

detect-lang is also written by @vankasteelj and as far as I can see there is nothing wrong with the availability of the package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/detect-lang). I've also excluded DNS query blocking within my network; requests to registry.npmjs.org are not blocked and permitted. It's also not blocked by a firewall (local or networkwide).

Hi, you might be using an older or newer version of npm. Locally I use npm 6.14.15 and node 14.18.0 if it helps.

Haven't been able to build up to now. Current versions in ArchLinux are NPM 8.15.1 and NodeJS 18.7.0. Unfortunately, I lack the programming skills to troubleshoot this.

The binary works package works.
