If standard solutions fail, consider these steps: 1) Update npm and node-gyp to the latest versions: `npm install -g npm` and `npm install -g node-gyp`. 2) Clear the npm cache: `npm cache clean --force`. 3) Delete `node_modules` and `package-lock.json` (or `yarn.lock`) and reinstall dependencies. 4) Report the issue to the module's maintainers, providing detailed information about your environment (Node.js version, npm version, macOS version, M1 chip details, and the full error log). 5) Search for similar issues on GitHub or Stack Overflow, as others may have encountered and solved the same problem.
