Lacking gRPC about google-cloud-gui

[GabiAxel]

I think I got it too when using Node 10, but not 8 (though with 8 I encountered #1). I didn't get to fix it yet, so the most reliable solution I can suggest is to use Yarn.

OK, switched to

$ node -v
v8.9.4

(yarn global add google-cloud-gui had failed earlier, but this Node version let me run that.)

However, I still get that gRPC error.

I also get the error if I remove this in yarn and then install using npm i -g google-cloud-gui

Before you installed it again, did you uninstall it? First ensure it is uninstalled by both npm and Yarn (they install global libraries in different locations, but the symlink to the executable command can only reference one of them, which you can see by running ls -l /usr/local/bin/google-cloud-gui), and then try Yarn again.

If that fails too, until we find a proper solution, you can download the repository and build it locally as described at the end of Development section.

I succeeded! I saw my Kinds -- wonderful tool!

Among the tricks I tried was the --unsafe-perm parameter. That may have made the difference

[JoshuaFox]

In case this helps others who come after me -- the tool is installed for me at ~/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.4/lib/node_modules/google-cloud-gui/

Same error here, the solutions listed above didn't solve the problem
