"npm install" fails on node v8.9.3 npm 5.6.0 Ubuntu 17.10 Linux

See original GitHub issue
$ git clone git@github.com:input-output-hk/daedalus.git

I am current as of commit ab6aab0c5203e9bad9af66d17ad65b460f61f226

Here is the output from “npm install”:

npm WARN deprecated babel-preset-latest@6.16.0: We're super 😸  excited that you're trying to use ES2017+ syntax, but instead of making more yearly presets 😭 , Babel now has a better preset that we recommend you use instead: npm install babel-preset-env --save-dev. preset-env without options will compile ES2015+ down to ES5 just like using all the presets together and thus is more future proof. It also allows you to target specific browsers so that Babel can do less work and you can ship native ES2015+ to user 😎 ! We are also in the process of releasing v7, so please give http://babeljs.io/blog/2017/09/12/planning-for-7.0 a read and help test it out in beta! Thanks so much for using Babel 🙏, please give us a follow on Twitter @babeljs for news on Babel, join slack.babeljs.io for discussion/development and help support the project at opencollective.com/babel

@neuhaus Node 6 is supported as mentioned and will be until at least April 2019. It was still pre-release when they started so the decision is understandable. Ideally they would support both but without investigating I’m sure there are a lot of unusual dependencies that may not yet work in Node 8.

I would highly recommend (nodenv)[nodenv] as it is faster than nvm and has never given me an issue.

This is all you need to do on Ubuntu:

Install nodenv and build plugin

git clone https://github.com/nodenv/nodenv.git ~/.nodenv
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.nodenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile
echo 'eval "$(nodenv init -)"' >> ~/.profile
# source or re-login
source ~/.profile 

git clone https://github.com/nodenv/node-build.git $(nodenv root)/plugins/node-build

Install latest Node 6 version

nodenv install 6.12.0
cd /path/to/daedalus
nodenv local 6.12.0 # creates .node-version file at project root
node -v #confirm "v6.12.0"

6.12.0 is latest now, to see list use `nodenv install -l | grep 6’

To install dependencies run either yarn or npm install.

For more thorough instructions about using nodenv you (can see my blog post)[https://joshmorel.ca/node-virtual-environments-with-nodenv.html].

This is unfortunate, node6 is old and not supported. There are exploits as well since no new updates being applied. We should have a mechanism to update electron to latest so we get newest node.
