I attempted to install on the two latest node LTS branches, v14.16.0 and v12.21.0, and installation failed in both cases.

node-pre-gyp WARN Pre-built binaries not found for [email protected] and [email protected] (node-v72 ABI, glibc) (falling back to source compile with node-gyp)
... which after a long process of compilation it eventually fails with

It ran successfully on v10.24.0. Is there a dependency on this version of node? Maintenance on this version ends April '21
