Actually, I wouldn’t do that just yet. Let me test what’s going to happen.

Thank for for testing @Olepir, I forgot to add the --unsafe-perm flag to the install command in the wiki when copying the instructions from the Windows 10 guide.

I’ve fixed this up now. You can probably run these commands to get you back to where you need to be:

# remove
sudo npm uninstall -g homebridge homebridge-config-ui-x

# reinstall
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge homebridge-config-ui-x

After doing that the hb-service command should be available.
