ERROR LOADING PLUGIN homebridge-dacp

See original GitHub issue

Hey,

when I install homebridge-dacp and start homebridge I get this error:

`[2018-3-24 22:49:49] ERROR LOADING PLUGIN homebridge-dacp:

"engines": { "node": ">=9.3.0", "homebridge": ">=0.4.36"

out of packages.json and also your plugin started to work. thanks for your time and support!

Ok. The virtual path is the idea of nvm to fix permission issues like yours.

Anyhow, given this try uninstalling and reinstalling homebridge-dacp again. Something definitely broke while installing mdns as part of homebridge-dacp.
