Unable to install - EINVALIDTAGNAME

[hathawaj]

Hello, I'm stuck right at the start as the installation, both from within node red and the command line, fails for me. It seems to be complaining about the release tag. Full error log below from the command line install. Is there a different method to install by downloading direct from github perhaps? Many thanks, John.

NPM apparently changed something about their dependency chain stuff again. Try running with --legacy-peer-deps and it should pass.

That seems to have done the trick. Many thanks for the prompt response.

John.
