Hi

yes there appears to be an issue that was identified by one of our users on slack

https://pact-foundation.slack.com/archives/C9VBGLUM9/p1657091994670579

Looks like

• pact-js npm install @pact-foundation/pact@9.17.3 fails
• npm install @pact-foundation/pact@9.17.2 passed

Release 9.17.3 brings in an update to upgrade to latest pact-node (0d9b127)

https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-js/commit/0d9b1270d4dc03e761941ae060b2a75db0bab24d#diff-7ae45ad102eab3b6d7e789[…]6470d7bc6507b6481575d519R97

pact-js-core released https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-js-core/releases/tag/v13.6.2 which is on npm as

• pact-core - https://www.npmjs.com/package/@pact-foundation/pact-core
• pact-node - https://www.npmjs.com/package/@pact-foundation/pact-node which pact-js uses, the latest release is 10.17.5

so will be picked up by the caret in the pact-node dep in pact-js.

Looking at the changes in https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-ruby-standalone/commits/master

the latest release brought in an addition of some azure env vars from this issue

https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact_broker-client/commit/889f83f3d24dfa4db2824a0049e11ec97a391ab2

Not sure what the root cause is at the moment but will look into it as soon as possible

Looking into this now. Looks like an error with the pact-node release......

OK have pushed out a new version. My suspicion is the checksum pushed out was incorrect/missing, apologies for the issue.

The latest version seems to install correctly, on my M1 at least. I'll check a few others now if possible also.
