Manually

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-js-debug
cd vscode-js-debug
git pull
git fetch --all --tags
git checkout tags/v1.74.1
npm install --legacy-peer-deps
npm run compile

With Packer

use {
  "microsoft/vscode-js-debug",
  opt = true,
  run = "npm install --legacy-peer-deps && npm run compile",
  tag = 'v1.74.1'
}

[mxsdev]

Thanks for this! And @JbIPS for the packer config.

I think it would be better to set the tag to v1.* though, to still get the latest updates. This should probably be in the readme...

[tomaskallup]

Using v1.* also causes this error for me, had to lock it to v1.74.1.

Seems like they released the breaking change as v1.75.

It should be fixed now and working with the main branch of vscode-js-debug again.

I got everything work, tested on latest commit microsoft/vscode-js-debug@df22101.

should we close this issue ?

I am still experiencing this on 1.75.1, 1.74.1 works fine though. Really strange, anyone else?
