Issue description
Dear,
Thanks for sharing this VERY useful node!!!
I have used it on my Windows 10 portable, and there it was running very smooth, but not on ubuntu.
-
In the package.json file of my custom node, I have added following dependencies:
"dependencies": { "xterm": "4.2.0-vscode1", "xterm-addon-fit": "0.3.0", "node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch": "0.9.0" }, -
I use this dependency in the Javascript code of my (NodeJs) node:
var pty = require('node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch'); -
When I install my node (directly from my Github repository), I can see that a build is initiated:
pi@PortableAsus:~/.node-red$ sudo npm install bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-xterm
[sudo] password for pi:node-pty@0.9.0 install /home/pi/.node-red/node_modules/node-pty

- The content of that folder looks like this:
pi@PortableAsus:~/.node-red/node_modules/node-pty/build$ ls -ltr
total 24
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 4066 Nov 18 08:08 config.gypi

-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 12629 Nov 18 08:08 Makefile
drwxr-xr-x 1 pi pi 4096 Nov 18 08:09 Release
- And that "Release" folder contains this file:
pi@PortableAsus:~/.node-red/node_modules/node-pty/build/Release$ ls -ltr
total 36
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pi pi 35216 Nov 18 08:09 pty.node
- Then I start the application (Node-RED from IBM that loads my node as a plugin), but I get this:
pi@PortableAsus:~/.node-red$ sudo node --inspect=0.0.0.0:5858 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/node-red/red.js

It is not clear to my why it is looking for a 'Debug' directory, while the build only created a 'Release' directory. And the error message (that Node-RED catches) seems to be referring to the 'Release' folder.
Do you have any idea what I could be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!!

Can you try a newer version of Node.js? node-pty requires v10 or later.
What's your cpu architecture?

Might this be perhaps some issue: I run Ubuntu in Windows 10 (like you can see here).
I have upgraded NodeJs to version v10.17.0 (recommended version for Node-RED), but then the problem still occurs:

@bartbutenaers After you updated your node version, did you delete your node_modules directory and reinstall your modules?
This is highly recommended after any node version change, as certain modules (including this one) can be sensitive to version changes.
It is throwing the same error. Here I've using it for an atom package called atomforces . It was using node-pty initially but was rather chosen to be replaced with node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch due to performance issues on windows. But now after switching it works on windows but throws an error on ubuntu.
Here is the error:
