when install using npm 8.x, node-gyp rebuild runs instead of node-pre-gyp, so prebuilt binaries are not downloaded

[benwalder]

Issue or Feature

• If this is an issue with installation, I have read the troubleshooting guide.

When using npm 6, the install runs node-pre-gyp to download prebuilt binaries as expected and the install is successful.

When using npm 8, the install runs node-gyp which attempts to rebuild the binaries and the install fails because pkg-config is not available.

We want to download the prebuilt binaries, not rebuild them. What is needed to have node-pre-gyp run with npm 8?

Steps to Reproduce

App package.json contains only canvas as a dependency to make it as simple as possible:

"dependencies": {
    "canvas": "^2.9.3"
  }

Ensure starting from scratch:
rm -rf node_modules
rm package-lock.json

npm 6 install successful: npm install runs node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build --update-binary

npm install --verbose

I had the same problem

[benwalder]

npm/cli#5234. It seems if there is a binding.gyp file in the root dir, npm always runs the default install command node-gyp rebuild.

Renaming or removing binding.gyp after the prebuild may be a workaround so the binaries are downloaded as they used to be with npm 6.

[mustafaekim]

My npm version is 8.12.1 and "npm i canvas" runs "node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build --update-binary" however the install fails as below. How can I install canvas?

PS. I already had canvas on my node_modules, I installed with multiple times. Today I cleared the node_modules folder and installed all packages again, only I had issue with canvas. I don't know what could have been changed?

npm info run canvas@2.9.3 install node_modules/canvas node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build --update-binary
npm info run canvas@2.9.3 install { code: 1, signal: null }
