Hmm... ok. 6to5 is using an old version, but the newest version 1.0.0 should work with one little modfiication... to this line: https://github.com/jprichardson/node-kexec/blob/master/binding.gyp#L6

Once this nvm-sh/nvm#616 gets pulled in, I can easily download io.js and test.

[jprichardson]

nvm now supports io.js. Now I need this: nodejs/node#433

[fundon]

Wow, awesome!
I upgrade nvm.

[jprichardson]

Almost got this working with the switch from node-gyp to pangyp

[jprichardson]

Done. https://github.com/jprichardson/node-kexec/releases/tag/1.1.0

👍

shouldn't pangyp be in dependencies so the install script can run? Or is it assumed I'll have pangyp in my top-level dependencies? I have kexec as a dependency in my package.json and I get the following error on npm install:

> [email protected] install /Users/bob/Projects/goodeggs-spec-helpers/node_modules/kexec
> pangyp configure build

sh: pangyp: command not found

Hmm. pangyp is a temporary replacement for node-gyp... node-gyp is used for easy building of native addons. I believe in the ecosystem that it's assumed that anyone that wants to install a native addon should npm install -g node-gyp and in this case, npm install -g pangyp.

For example, fsevents a popular package does this: https://github.com/pipobscure/fsevents/blob/master/package.json

Maybe I shouldn't even have pangyp as a devDependency.

I'm not sure what to think here. What are other mainstream native packages doing?
