npm install breakes on latest yosemite with latest node (v0.12.0) about node-bignum HOT 9 CLOSED

I can confirm that. Running last ver or installing via npm is not working on node v0.12.0

from node-bignum.

It's not been working for over 13 months on v0.11.x either: #24

from node-bignum.

@nikolay stop being a troll. It's been working on 0.11 for a while now, those issues have just not been closed, updating to support 0.12 and io.js now.

@rvagg Stop being overly sensitive and verbally vindictive. I found the old issue first (via googling) and then this. Since when providing feedback is trolling?

Open source doesn't work when people like you parachute in and start moaning about problems you have zero background in just because a google search lead you here. The upgrade to 0.12 and io.js support was a simple 1-line change in package.json. If you can't be productive and contribute in material ways then your best contribution would be to stay silent.

No need to patronize. I'm not using your project directly, but it broke my build thru another dependency and I reported the issue with them as well. Contribution to open-source project is solely via commits. Moaning or not, I possibly made you close a bunch of irrelevant tickets, i.e. I helped improve the status quo.

@rvagg I did a nom install and I am getting the same error. Should I do anything what should I do to make it work?

@edimoldovan npm install bignum@latest just to make sure you're getting 0.9.2. Also, perhaps you don't have the xcode command line tools installed? Do you know if you are able to compile any other native addons? If you don't know, perhaps try npm install buffertools and see how it goes.

Try xcode-select -p and see if it comes back with anything interesting, it'll print /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer if you have the full XCode installed.

If you type gcc and it gives you some interesting output then that's a good sign. If it brings up a dialog then it should give you a chance to install the commandline tools. You should also be able to run xcode-select --install to trigger an install I think.

@rvagg xcode and pals was fine, there was a 0.6.2 dependency in dulcimer which broke the install. On the other hand, there are a lot of other modules which break, some I don’t know why, some I can fix with version bumps. My solution was to get back to node v0.10.36 because I was unable to work on my projects.

But the new version of bignum is fine with latest stable node, thanks a lot for that.
