Hi,

I'm trying to install electerm via root on Void Linux
I get this

npm i -g electerm

/usr/bin/electerm -> /usr/lib/node_modules/electerm/npm/electerm

electerm@1.10.4 postinstall /usr/lib/node_modules/electerm
node npm/install.js

downloading https://github.com/electerm/electerm/releases/download/v1.12.24/electerm-1.12.24-linux-x64.tar.gz
(node:21356) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/usr/lib/node_modules/electerm/electerm-1.12.24-linux-x64'

electerm@1.10.4

Part of the package is written, but not enough to make it run

Thanks

I see, I would suggest you install npm/nodejs with nvm, which only use local user permission, then npm i -g will not encounter permission issue.
