The problem was the RPi didn’t have pkg-config installed - once I got that everything worked - with the odd warning… Thanks for your support, John.

hi i have been trying to restore my node-red system on my raspberry Pi-0-W for a few days now with successive failures due to unavailable resources for node-pre-gyp I started with the current version of node.js and node red installed via the nodered.org pi page. Hit the problem looked it up and found some folk using a Pi3b or 3B+ had success after downgrading to node8. so i started with a new raspbian-lite install and installed node.js 8 and then node red, installed my nodes and again no node-pre-gyp resourses resulting in a rolback/fallback build with known issues in the nobel/debug resources that the node i need ‘node-red-contrib-Xiaomi-ble’ fails to install with resulting in an unresolvable npm audit err…

I have now followed Pete scargills suggestion to downgrade to node 6, – still the same issue…

an attempt to install pkg-config failed too raising a screen full of Blood red compile errors before crashing out with exit condition 1.

On a fresh install the errors are reported around problems with bluetooth-hci-socket, as i start trying to fix this with attempts to install bluetooth-hci-socket and usb and their respective prerequisites the errors soon solidify to

-pre-gyp https download node-pre-gyp WARN Tried to download(404): https://github.com/tessel/node-usb/releases/download/1.5.0/usb_bindings-v1.5.0-node-v64-linux-arm.tar.gz node-pre-gyp WARN Pre-built binaries not found for usb@1.5.0 and node@10.15.1 (node-v64 ABI, glibc) (falling back to source compile with node-gyp)

which will result in the nobel/debug V2.0 installed while the xiaomi-ble node requires the bug fixed V2.6.9 of nobel/debug to install…

and around and around i have been going… Please advise???
