Upgrade node-gyp to remove python2 dependency #216

Closed dbellavista closed 3 years ago

dbellavista commented 3 years ago

Hi!

This package still requires python2 to be correctly installed (since it's required by node-gyp). A while ago, node-gyp was updated to support python3.

Since python2 was deprecated almost a year ago, are you planning on updating the dependency?

node-iconv doesn't depend (directly) on node-gyp, it uses the one that's bundled with npm. You want to update your version of npm, assuming the latest version ships a new enough node-gyp.
