prereqs.sh needs to handle npm dependency and updates better #201

Closed bergr01 closed 4 years ago

bergr01 commented 4 years ago

While trying to set up guild operators cnode setup for Haskell node on a new ubuntu box ran into the following error:

sudo apt-get -y install python3 build-essential pkg-config libffi-dev libgmp-dev libssl-dev libtinfo-dev systemd libsystemd-dev zlib1g-dev npm yarn make g++ tmux git jq wget libncursesw5 gnupg Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies: npm : Depends: node-gyp (>= 0.10.9) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

npm is apparently required by graphql

For the time being commented out npm from the list of dependencies and progress further. Raising a github issue as requested by Priyank

I experienced this problem as well.

since the script doesn't make it easy to understand what went wrong, perhaps we just remove it from the prereqs for now, and put a note in that they should install npm manually

@samcgill29 could you check if the changes in #223 solve the issue for you?

Issue resolved, I used Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, no problems with prereq.sh script.
