nodejs version needs to be between 10.23 - 17.x., try to install these version and install the package again

Thanks for you return, so the documentation is wrong?

The prerequisite is written as: "Nodejs version between 10.23.1 - 19.x."
And last feature merged include: "Add support for node v18 & v19 #884"

Steps was reproduced correctly and lib should install successfully

@vela-io were you able to make any progress?
I setup a similar env as you described in window wls2. I had an issue with the humble setup.zsh so I reverted to using setup.bash which is my default. With that difference I am able to install rclnodejs with no issues. As a quick test could you try using either node 17 or 19. Note - I recently noticed an issue with node 18.3 but did not replicate the issue with node 18.2 or 18.1. I'll investigate that soon.
