[santekotturi]

I've spent the last 6 hours trying to get around this

same error with both:
pnpm install and pnpm install -w --include=optional sharp

always using rm -rf node_modules & rm pnpm-lock.yaml between each try.

node v23.4.0
tried downgrading to v20.x
pnpm v9.9.0

also tried brew install opus
macOS 15.1
XCode 16.2

on:
% git status >> HEAD detached at v0.1.6-alpha.1

Potentially related to:
#1041
#215

Have you tried xcode-select --install to have C++ compiler installed? I'm on m2, thought I ran into a similar issue (don't remember the exact issue) when I was trying eliza first time, and running xcode-select --install got it fixed for me as far as I can remember.

[santekotturi]

Yea, I ran that, I've got a macos 15.2 update waiting for me, maybe that plays better with Xcode 16.2... will report back

[santekotturi]

macos 15.2 updated, all xcode tool updates made. still same error.

This discordjs/opus connects having homebrew python3.12 in your path (which I do) discordjs/opus#145 (comment)

Curious what anyone else has for

python3 --version
which python3

[santekotturi]

Had to uninstall xcode-select and reinstall ¯_(ツ)_/¯

sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
xcode-select --install

that gets us: node_modules/@discordjs/opus: Running install script, done in 30.1s

I have the same issue. Have you resolved? Thanks.

Have the same issue as well, but for node-llama-cpp on M1 macbook

If you are coming from intel to silicon chip. one of the most common problems is porting over node and running it with rosetta. A lot of the AI packages are going to break.

1. Firstly, check if you are running a node version that's for x64 or arm...
node -p "process.arch"

You are looking for arm64. If you are on x64, you need to delete and reinstall node

2. Delete and reinstall node v23 (for this repo)

env /usr/bin/arch -arm64 /bin/zsh —-login

Run the following to switch to arm64
