/root directory does not exist.
Searched globally for file 2025-01-09T20_05_33_024Z-debug-0.log and couldn't find it.

Local npm version: 10.8.2
I cleared the npm cache:
npm cache clean --force

Still getting the "npm error Exit handler never called!" error.

I downgraded node from version 22.6.0 to 22.5.1 ( nodejs/node#53902 (comment) ) and now I get the error:

I also tried to:

• remove ~/git/genai-stack/front-end/package-lock.json => FAIL, install goes into an endless loop
• export NODE_OPTIONS=--no-network-family-autoselection => FAIL with original error "npm error Exit handler never called!"

Has anybody managed to install the genai stack on an M1 Mac?
