SignalK install skips percompiling some modules

[mgrouch]

Errors look like:

Failed to start: Could not locate the bindings file. Tried: ...

Running

pnpm build

as 'signalk' user in the directory specified in the error message usually fixes the issue.

This issue is caused by introduction of --approve-builds flag to pnpm.
Even worse --approve-builds pops up a interractive menu in CI which hangs the builds.

How did you fix it?

[mgrouch]

Added

( echo a; sleep 1; echo y ) | pnpm approve-builds

after

pnpm install

[maelp]

apparently a better fix is to use the "neverBuiltDependencies" field in package.json Message ID: ***@***.*** .com>

[mgrouch]

I can't edit package.json. I receive the code which I'm just building without modifying it
