I'm opening this issue because:

  • npm is crashing.
  • npm is producing an incorrect install.
  • npm is doing something I don't understand.
  • Other (see below for feature requests):

What's going wrong?

This problem started appearing with NPM 3.10.8, with 3.10.7 it worked well. With 3.10.8 TravisCI tries to install fsevents which is an optional dependency of a dev dependency that only works on OS X / mac OS and so it fails.

matteo@macbook~/dev/habitrpg/habitrpg$ npm ls fsevents
habitica@3.42.1 /Users/matteo/dev/habitrpg/habitrpg
└─┬ karma@1.3.0
  └─┬ chokidar@1.6.0
    └── fsevents@1.0.14

If it can help we're using npm shrinkwrap where the package is listed as optional: true

"fsevents": {
  "version": "1.0.14",
  "from": "fsevents@>=1.0.0 <2.0.0",
  "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/fsevents/-/fsevents-1.0.14.tgz",
  "optional": true,
  "dependencies": {
    ...
  }
},

An example of a failing build is https://travis-ci.org/HabitRPG/habitrpg/builds/161951399, I don't have access to npm-debug.log
