Thx for mentioning this @mairin, did this cause anything to break for you or is it just a warning? What OS and version are you on? Do you see this when installing dependencies or when running a build?

Happy to help, just let me know how or if this presents any specific issues for you. Thx!

@seanforyou23 hey its unclear if anything broke or not, looks like it is an OS X specific module that uses FSEvents in OS X to watch directory changes. The Linux equivalent system is called inotify and it looks like there are a bunch of cross-platform file/directory watcher node modules that could perhaps be used in its place. I am not sure what functionality in patternfly requires this feature so I'm not sure how to test how it broke.

The error message is from installing deps; it's on a fully updated Fedora 30 workstation.

Ok great, thanks for this information it definitely helps. Let me queue up some time to dig into this. I do notice various warnings from time to time with some of the dev tools, most of which seem safe to ignore, but to your point, it's a fair indication that something somewhere isn't happy. I'll keep you posted, let me know if anything else unfolds on your end.
