Failed to download Chromium r722234

Steps to reproduce

Tell us about your environment:

• Puppeteer version: v2.1.1
• Platform / OS version: Google Cloud Functions (HTTP)
• URLs (if applicable):
• Node.js version: Nodejs 8

What steps will reproduce the problem? I have use puppeteer in my function. When I deploy function on Cloud Functions for Firebase, i got this error. I just retried it a couple of times and eventually it would install correctly. Not really a fix but it may indicate it was just trying to install it on a malfunctioning serverless instance or something.

What is the expected result? No error

What happens instead?

Deployment error.

Sometime it’s a other error

Deployment error.

The issue is resolved for me. It was a case of Prerequisites not met. The nodejs library on my system was 10.8.0. Once I upgraded the node version, the install went through ( I even wrote some samples using the library)

use --unsafe-perm.It works for me! npm i puppeteer -g --unsafe-perm
