won't build on MacOS 11.3.1 with current node (from Homebrew) about protonclient HOT 6 CLOSED

Thanks for replying.

I am using nativefier 43.1.3 and node 16.2.0, both of which are installed using homebrew and are as up to date as possible

I removed node_modules/xmldom/package.json but now it fails with Error: Cannot find module 'xmldom'
Clearly I don't know how to fix this and randomly deleting package.json files is not the answer!

Thanks for your efforts - I'll try to pull down a new set of files from github and re-run ./build.sh --mac every so often, but it looks like my ProtonClient days might be numbered!!

Hi, try to remove package.json

Anyways I don't really know about macs to be honest.

Did you install the prerequisites as stated in Nativefier documentation?

from protonclient.

Try to delete package.json in the root folder if present. I meant that.

In any case, there is a built version in the releases section.

Since there is no answer I'm closing

Same issue here:

Node.js v17.7.1

...but Nativefier is in my $PATH...

% nativefier --version       
46.1.1

I had the same error while using a global install of Nativefier, solved it by installing Nativefier again to the current directory.

It built fine but there's an "invalid character" error at login due to an Electron bug.
