dezalgo again

[jeffrson]

I'm posting a new issue, since other similar issues have been closed without a real solution. npm@4 is, unfortunately, no solution.

In package.json there is a dependency on npm 4.0.2 - if this dependency is replaced by npm 5.6.0 installDeps.sh works again.

I managed to fix an error message regarding dezalgo by disabling the package-lock file.
I created a file named .npmrc in the src directory, with contents:
package-lock=false

This worked because in my case etherpad-lite started up fine the first time and would complain about delzago if I ever tried to restart it. Probably not an ideal solution, but I am not familiar with the code base, I am just trying to get it to work.

I bumped dep reqs. See if that helps.
