Unicode dependency postinstall is breaking on elasticbeanstalk at the moment

Hi!

I'm not going to be super helpful on this one, but on AWS Elasticbeanstalk I get the following error when installing Slug.

67126 verbose stack Error: [email protected] postinstall: `node install.js`

Worked around by forking and replacing the [email protected] dependency.
Replaced in my package.json the slug depency with "slug": "git+https://[email protected]/180-g/node-slug",

See https://github.com/180-g/node-slug

No indication whatsoever of what the problem is. Noticed that another fork has been done 3 days ago. Decided to fork too, might be an indicator something is wrong with the package.

I have the same problem.

Hi, is it maybe related to dodo/node-unicodetable#16 ?

[kentcdodds]

I'm pretty sure that if this package just updated to the latest version of unicode this wouldn't be a problem...

@dodo do you need help maintaining this package?

@dodo What can I do as well to help maintain this package?

I've moved on to https://npmjs.com/package/slugify which satisfies all my use cases.
