npm i @tensorflow/tfjs-node fails to install

• System version: Ubuntu MATE 20.04.1 LTS 64-bit
• Installation source: NPM (npm i @tensorflow/tfjs-node)
• TensorFlow.js version: 2.8.3-node
• CUDA/cuDNN version: none

npm i @tensorflow/tfjs-node fails to install tfjs-node. It looks like that it cannot download CPU-linux-2.8.3.tar.gz because it no longer exists on that directory.

Terminal log: `> @tensorflow/tfjs-node@2.8.3 install /opt/lampp/htdocs/node_modules/@tensorflow/tfjs-node

I fixed it by doing sudo npm install quick.db --unsafe-perm So try sudo npm install @tensorflow/tfjs-node --unsafe-perm

From this issue

[jonit-dev]

try sudo chown yourlinuxuserhere -R .

and then

yarn install
