[Bug 1517491] Re: installation fails due to broken dependencies
This is also reported in : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/npm/+bug/1809828 I have this issue on the up to date Ubuntu 18.04 LTS today (used this workaround : https://askubuntu.com/questions/1088662/npm-depends-node-gyp-0-10-9-but-it-is-not-going-to-be-installed). Seems like a dependency issue of the npm package to me, which should be fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517491 Title: installation fails due to broken dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/npm/+bug/1517491/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

this seems like a dependency issue in the npm package and a side effect of that.

[Bug 1517491] Re: installation fails due to broken dependencies
Hi, First of all, which Ubuntu release are you running? (Asking because 15.10 where this issue was originally reported against has reached end of life) I assume that the snapdragon 410c board is some sort of arm development board, so I can't test with that, but I was able to install npm without issues on my 16.04 vm. Could you try with some of the suggestions from comment #4? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517491 Title: installation fails due to broken dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/npm/+bug/1517491/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1517491] Re: installation fails due to broken dependencies
Thanks for providing the requested information, that looks right. >a just upgraded Ubuntu 15.10 Hm... my 15.10 vm is a clean install, so maybe this issue is affected by some packages from older releases? Ok, here's a couple of questions: 1. Usually when packages have unmet dependencies, some other installed packages are conflicting and prevent the an underlying package from being installed. Could you try to drill down from one of the packages which isn't going to be installed and see whether something is uninstallable because it conflicts with another package? 2. Do you have packages installed from any PPAs which might affect these packages? 3. Out of curiosity, could you test switching to a different package mirror and see whether you can install then? In case the mirror has some temporarily missing package (version) that would explain why I can install it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517491 Title: installation fails due to broken dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/npm/+bug/1517491/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1517491] Re: installation fails due to broken dependencies
Thanks for taking your time to report this issue. I wasn't able to reproduce this issue on Ubuntu 15.10, npm installed fine without problems for me. Looks like it has problem finding a version of node-gyp which satisfies the version requirement, could you please attache the output of `apt-cache policy node-gyp`? ** Changed in: npm (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags added: unmetdeps -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517491 Title: installation fails due to broken dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/npm/+bug/1517491/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
