These are my versions  
Atom : 1.41.0  
Electron: 4.2.12

Try installing uber-juno because Julia-client has some dependencies that may not get installed automatically.

Hm, I’m on Manjaro as well and installing works just fine for me. Can you try

```julia
apm install julia-client

```

in a terminal?

Also, how did you install Atom?

I’ve tried with uber-juno first but the problem appears when it tries to install julia-client. That’s why I tried to install just the julia-client package.

Also have tried with to installed with the terminal, but the same error appears.

I installed atom with the package manager of Manjaro.

Now is v8.0.0 but I have nvm to move from one node version to another, I think maybe the problem is related to that

Yeah, for some reason `apm` is picking up your global `node` installation, and you need at least version 8.5 for the postinstall script to succeed. Try switching to something a bit newer, like node 10, and try again.
