Issue Details

Electron Forge Version:
- 6.0.0-beta.54
Electron Version:
- 11.0.3
Operating System:
- Manjaro Linux
Last Known Working Electron Forge version::
- don´t know

Expected Behavior

I´m using electron-forge with webpack and React. I wanted to add SASS to it so I installed node-sass (Version: ^5.0.0) and sass-loader.

Actual Behavior

Unfortunately the package is being rebuild on npm run start with electron-rebuild, which is throwing this error.

gyp: Call to 'node -e "require('nan')"' returned exit status 0 while in binding.gyp. while trying to load binding.gyp
✖ Rebuild Failed

An unhandled error occurred inside electron-rebuild

When installing node-sass and deleting it from my package.json, so it doesn´t get recogniced and recompiled, everything worked. So my question is either how to fix this error or how to disable the rebuild of the native package on startup. Maybe someone could help me with this.

This is a question, not a bug and being helped in the Discord channel.

If someone encounters the same problem, node-sass is deprecated and should be replaced by dart-sass

electron / forge
