Installation failed (NodeJs 9.9.0)

Hi,

I tried to install this Homebridge Plugin on my Raspberry Pi Zero running the latest version of NodeJs and Homebridge, but it's not working.

Here is what I see in the console:

pi@raspberrypi:~/.homebridge $ sudo npm install -g homebridge-soundtouch

mdns@2.4.0 install /usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-soundtouch/node_modules/mdns
node-gyp rebuild

And the 2018-07-22T19_55_06_071Z-debug.log file:

Do you have any idea of what could be the problem?

Thanks in advance!

I’ve got this problem too. Has anyone found a solution in these months?
