## Python Issues OSX
Make sure you are using the native Python version in OSX. If you use a MacPorts of HomeBrew version, you may run into problems.
If you have issues with `execvp`, be sure to check your `$PYTHON` environment variable. If it is not set to the native version, unset it and try again.

## Versions of `node-gyp` that are earlier than v8.x.x
Please look thru your error log for the string `gyp info using node-gyp@` and if that version number is less than the [current release of node-gyp](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/releases) then __please upgrade__ using [these instructions](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/blob/master/docs/Updating-npm-bundled-node-gyp.md) and then try your command again.
## `node-sass` is deprecated
Please be aware that the package [`node-sass` is deprecated](https://github.com/sass/node-sass#node-sass) so you should actively seek alternatives. Please avoid opening new `node-sass` issues on this repo. You can try `npm install --global node-sass@latest` but we [cannot help much](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3A%22Node+Sass+--%3E+Dart+Sass%22+) here.
## Issues finding the installed Visual Studio
In cmd, [`npm config set msvs_version 20xx`](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#on-windows) with ___xx___ matching your locally installed version of Visual Studio.
