There is a related conversions: sass/node-sass#217

This doesn't help. Same error.
Is there any chance that this package will be updated to reflect the current versions of dependencies?

[godrose]

Looks like this package is as good as dead.

Also have the same issue. Abandonware?

[godrose]

Yes. It fails across multiple systems.

Only here because someone wrote an aws dashing module using this rather than dashing.io. Oh well, looks like I'm spending time converting

Found another fork

Worked fine for me

What's the point of this at all? Again you're porting it to something that means everyone will need to rewrite all their existing code to work with it instead of just working with the existing framework. Pointless exercise
