Any clue what might be going on here?

[sdetweil]

@brandoney yes, I saw your report before…

can u also do

node -v
and npm -v

[Brandoney]

@sdetweil said in MMM-BackgroundSlideshow 'linux-armv7' binaries cannot be used on the "linux-armvdefault platform:

node -v
and npm -v

node -v
v14.18.2
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/config $ npm -v
6.14.15

[sdetweil]

@brandoney thx. this looks like a problem with bullseye and node

here is similar sharp problem
https://github.com/lovell/sharp/issues/2287

I don’t know what to do about this

[karsten13]

there is already an issue in the github repo

[sdetweil]

@karsten13 yes, that is the one I linked to. but it says armv6, not armv7…

[BKeyport]

@sdetweil FWIW, I downgraded to buster and it does it there as well, I’ve disabled the module for the short term.

[sdetweil]

@bkeyport I think one would have to set the parms on install per the sharp doc

https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/install

looks like prebuilt binaries are not produced for 32bit os systems (raspi os)

[wishmaster270]

For me it worked to install a self compiled version of vips…

sudo apt install -y build-essential libglib2.0 libjpeg9 libopenjp2-7 librsvg2-dev imagemagick libtiff5-dev
wget https://github.com/libvips/libvips/releases/download/v8.12.1/vips-8.12.1.tar.gz
tar xfvz vips-8.12.1.tar.gz
cd vips-8.12.1
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

npm install

It will take a while to compile the library and a lot of disk space will be used.
