Are you trying to install Postleaf or build it? There's a ready-to-use dist at www.postleaf.org/download if you're just trying to install it.

Not sure why you're seeing that error. I just rebuilt from scratch and NPM is working fine for me (but I can't test on Windows at the moment).

Anyone else seeing the same thing?

[vanloc0301]

I tried build it from branch master of source in your repository.. I am sure that will occurs on most OS except MacOS. I reinstall Windows 10 to Windows 7, to Manjaro (distro build from Arch) and also have same error.

[claviska]

What version of Node and NPM are you using?

[claviska]

I think you might be having the same issue that's mentioned here. I'm not sure what the minimum versions of Node/NPM are, but I'm on Node 5.10.0 and NPM 3.8.3. My guess is you're running an older version and will need to upgrade to run the build.

[vanloc0301]

I tested on node v6.3.0 - v6.3.1, npm 3.10.5.

[claviska]

I tested on 6.22 and reproduced the problem. I'll report back when I figure out what's causing it.

[vanloc0301]

Thanks @claviska . I using nvm test in Node 5.10.0 and don't have error.

See 6241c96. It's building on Node 6.3.1 for me now. Thanks for reporting.
