No, my guess is that it's the lack of DTrace on Linux that makes it fail. > OT & @Isaac: Please see https://github.com/mcavage/node-restify/issues/161 > "That's a general feature request for npm (i.e., install X without Y)." Probably not going to happen. I could see a use for a "Never even try to install package xyz" type of option in npm, but it should be a feature request, and would need some discussion to flesh out exactly how it works. In most cases (including, in my opinion, this one) an optionalDependency is exactly the right fit. -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
