Dear maintainer,
I tried building and installing the renovate tool from npm, using
npm -g install renovate.
This went well but when I run it I get the message
The module
'/usr/local/lib/node_modules/renovate/node_modules/re2/build/Release/re2.node'
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 108. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 109. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
the module (for instance, using `npm rebuild` or `npm install
After some investigation I found out that re2.node is compiled using a
tool called node-gyp, and that tool fetches the node_version.h from
https://nodejs.org/download/release/v18.20.1/node-v18.20.1-headers.tar.gz
<https://nodejs.org/download/release/v18.20.1/node-v18.20.1-headers.tar.gz>
instead of using the locally installed one. This
upstream version has 108 as the NODE_MODULE_VERSION, of course.
You're supposed to use system-installed modules, especially for node-gyp.
If you're using /usr/bin/node-gyp and it is doing that, then it's a bug
in node-gyp.
Also note that node-re2 is available in debian.
I have debian versions of both node-re2 and node-gyp installed, but npm
-g install renovate doesn't pick those up. The npm I'm using is the npm
from the debian npm package.
To solve both, you should do `pkgjs-install` next to package.json, so
that your system-installed
modules are symlinked to the local node_modules directory.
Then "npm install" shouldn't remove the symlinks and install just the
missing ones.
There is no package.json, because I am using npm -g install renovate,
not installing from a checked-out repository. Is npm -g install not
supposed to work?
I will now try installing from the repository and let you know if that
works.
In any case, node 20 or 22 is going to debian unstable soon enough, and
we'll have "standard" modules versions again.
Looking forward to it!
Jérémy
