node.js - Pre-built binaries not found for [email protected] and [email protected]

Question

I'm getting a mass of error messages when I try to install node_modules in my project. I've previously installed it successfully, but I'm not sure what I've done wrong to cause all these error messages to be generated now.

Any help to decipher what they mean would be great. Just before this, I did the following install of grpc, which installed v1.14.1:

$ npm install -g grpc@latest

[email protected] install /usr/local/lib/node_modules/grpc
node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build --library=static_library

node-pre-gyp WARN Using needle for node-pre-gyp https download 
[grpc] Success: "/usr/local/lib/node_modules/grpc/src/node/extension_binary/node-v64-darwin-x64-unknown/grpc_node.node" is installed via remote
+ [email protected]
added 85 packages from 48 contributors in 6.344s

so it's curious why node is trying to use v1.10.1 in the following messages:

$ npm i

> [email protected] install /path/to/app/node_modules/fsevents
> node install

[fsevents] Success: "/path/to/app/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding/Release/node-v64-darwin-x64/fse.node" already installed
Pass --update-binary to reinstall or --build-from-source to recompile

> [email protected] install /path/to/app/node_modules/@firebase/firestore/node_modules/grpc
> node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build --library=static_library

npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.
