Could you try with taglib v1.8 or higher?

[daslicht]

After installing this version:

[nikhilm]

try removing the dynamiclib line in the binding.gyp file. I don't have a OSX machine anymore to try it out on, so it might have to do with the version of OSX you are using.

[enbrent]

I'm also having this problem however I am on windows.

Any ideas?

[nikhilm]

@Kirasagi
If you have taglib installed, taglib-config does not seem to be in your PATH.

[masterkain]

fixed here: fea01d8

[rahilwazir]

Fix for Linux (Worked on Ubuntu 14.04)

First install

• $ apt-get install libtag1-dev

Then do

• npm install taglib

[rahilwazir]

Another Fix for Linux (Centos, Kali and almost for all versions) If dependency problem exists:

• Upgrade curl to latest version
• Install libarchive.so shared library
• Install CMake toolset
• Install Taglib library

(All the installation guides are there for each libraries)

Then do

• npm install taglib

in node stable version (0.10.36), it works fine!

[drone1]

Hi all -- I could use some help.

Please forgive me if I'm barking up the wrong tree, but from what I can tell this is a node-taglib issue.

I'm on OSX El Capitan 10.11.6; node 7.2.1; npm 3.10.10.

I installed python 2.7 with brew install python.
I installed taglib 1.11.1 with brew install taglib.
I installed node-gyp 3.4.0 with npm install -g node-gyp.

When I run 'npm install taglib --save' I get the output below. I've also tried installing from source and get the same errors.

Thanks for any help.
