Issue

When I try run npm install, I get this error:

> puppeteer@1.8.0 install /home/andrew/Documents/Code/GitHub/best-resume-ever/node_modules/puppeteer
> node install.js

Segmentation fault

Try install Debian's chromium package before:
sudo apt-get install chromium
then, in the best-resume-ever source directory
npm install
good luck

I already have Chromium installed and I have installed both puppeteer and puppeteer-core

I am experiencing the same problem.
I am running node v10.16.3, npm 6.13.2 (all nvm) and even installed puppeteer@2.0.0 globally.
Nothing helped though.
It just goes

Chromium downloaded to /home/kudlaty01/Dokumenty/priv/CV/best-resume-ever/node_modules/puppeteer/.local-chromium/linux-588429

and then the same as in this issue's first message. Adjusting puppeteer version does not help either.
dpkg -l | grep chromium leaves the following output:

I had the same issue when trying to install on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS WSL2.

Updating to the latest LTS nodejs v14.15.4 fixed my issue. FYI using npm v6.14.10

I had a same issue on my Ubuntu environment and I managed to install the package with following commands.

sudo apt install -y chromium-browser
echo 'ignore-scripts=true' >> ~/.npmrc
node node_modules/puppeteer/install.js
