Clear Bun Cache Issues in OpenCut

Bun aggressively caches packages. When lockfiles change or a dependency publishes a bad build, clear the cache and reinstall.

Cleanup script 

rm -rf ~/.bun/install/cache
rm -rf node_modules .turbo .next
bun install

Verify versions 

bun pm ls react
bun pm ls @ffmpeg/ffmpeg

Ensure the package versions match package.json.

Lockfile hygiene

  • Commit bun.lock with dependency changes.
  • Avoid mixing npm install and bun install in one branch.
  • Run bun pm dedupe after large upgrades.

If the error persists, try pnpm install to isolate whether the upstream package is broken before returning to Bun.
