gyp_main.py: error: no such option: --no-parallel

[dibu28]

"gyp_main.py: error: no such option: --no-parallel"
"Error: gyp failed with exit code: 2"

Then I try to install pm2 or sleep packages. "npm install pm2 -g"

Or then I try to run "node-gyp configure"

How to fix this?

Ref: #426

Same here

[JoergFF]

I try build https://github.com/atom/atom.

Under Ubuntu 14.04 and Debian sid I get:

#############
Usage: gyp_main.py [options ...] [build_file ...]

The workaround from #426 does not work because node-gyp is loaded during builds

@nodejs/node-gyp Should this remain open?

[bnoordhuis]

No, should be fixed. If anyone still encounters this, make sure you don't have an old copy of gyp (not node-gyp) on your path.
