Installing NewCP on Fedora -- compilation issue #32

Open alicia-pugh opened 3 months ago

alicia-pugh commented 3 months ago

Hi! I'm a beginner with installing/running packages of this type. I'm operating on Fedora 34. I mostly use my computer for bioinformatics purposes, so I install most of my software via mamba and the Bioconda repository! NewCP is a little more complicated :) My issue might (quite likely) not have anything to do with your package, but I'm really struggling to find answers elsewhere.

I have downloaded the electron, node, and yarn dependencies. When I try to run 'yarn start' within the NewCP file, where the file 'package.json' is located, I get the following:

yarn start yarn run v1.22.19 $ electron-forge start ✔ Checking your system ✖ Locating Application

Electron forge was terminated: You must depend on "electron-prebuilt-compile" in your devDependencies error Command failed with exit code 1. info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.

Does the order in which one installs node, electron etc. influence the way the program works? Have I sonehow installed teh dependencies wrong? Am I completely off-base? What would you recommend I do at this point?
