Oni: Install from source failure, maybe related to cross-spawn

[Canop]

I followed the instructions here

So I did

yarn install
npm run build
npm link

During the execution of npm run build I got this warning:

WARNING in ./node_modules/cross-spawn/index.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'spawn-sync' in '/home/dys/dev/oni/node_modules/cross-spawn'
 @ ./node_modules/cross-spawn/index.js 32:26-47

 @ ./browser/src/Services/Language/LanguageClientProcess.ts
 @ ./browser/src/Services/Language/index.ts
 @ ./browser/src/index.tsx
 @ multi ./browser/src/index.tsx

And npm link failed with this error:

An unhandled error occurred inside electron-rebuild
ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/dys/dev/oni/node_modules/execa/node_modules/cross-spawn/package.json'

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/dys/dev/oni/node_modules/execa/node_modules/cross-spawn/package.json'

npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] postinstall script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

What did I do wrong ?

OS: Ubuntu 16.04
Node: v8.9.3

Hey @Canop

I get the same issue on Arch as well. You can circumvent it by

rm -rf node_modules
npm i 
npm link
yarn install
npm run build

Lemme know if that doesn’t fix it for you.

This seems to work, thanks.

@someguynamedmatt: Despite running your suggested commands, I end up with this output for npm run build:
