[-][BUG] <title>[/-][+][BUG] Upgrade node-gyp to ^8.1.2 version[/+]wraithgar commentedon Jul 12, 2021
Updating node-gyp is on our roadmap, but it may not be able to happen until npm@8 because it is a breaking change and is not supported in node versions 10.0.0 through 10.11.0, which npm@7 has to support. It also drops support for some python versions, and we are discussing whether or not that also prevents us from updating in this npm version.
You can see the ongoing discussion here nodejs/node-gyp#2392
The bug that prevents users from specifying their own node-gyp version is being tracked here #2839
