Hello Jérémy Lal, unfortunately yes, it still crashes. Attached file shows a test starting with a minimal up-to-date Buster i386 qemu VM, and as far as I see after the crash /usr/local/lib/node_modules does not exist and following command shows just these files in ~/node_modules, so I can assume it took gyp from the installed package?
benutzer@debian:~$ find -iname "*gyp*" ./node_modules/.staging/@paulcbetts/spellchecker-c39cd101/binding.gyp ./node_modules/.staging/keyboard-layout-87dfeaf6/binding.gyp Kind regards, Bernhard
