Hiya, I wanted to see if you were still experiencing this or had found a fix? @Dennis and I suggested in another thread moving your dev dependencies to be production dependencies so they’ll definitely be available during build.

@divya also had some suggestions in the other thread you linked:

> [@Production build fails due to eslint \`console.log()\` errors, possible issue with NODE\_ENV](https://answers.netlify.com/t/production-build-fails-due-to-eslint-console-log-errors-possible-issue-with-node-env/8643/11):

> Hey @tmrd, I’ve had similar issues with the netlify build bot yelling about unexpected console logs (and debuggers!) as well. However, this generally shouldn’t cause the build to fail, so I’m as puzzled by this error as you are. One thing to check as @jen and @Dennis mentioned is to move your babel-eslint and babel-plugin-transform-remove-console packages to dependencies rather than devDependencies so they are installed when the build runs. I’ve tried to copy your test config in a vue project …

Want to check out the repo she links there and/or try the dependencies suggestion, and let us know how it goes?
