installation fail

[stekontar]

I am trying to install it but with no luck
I tried to win 10 / linux mint and in both the following message appears
Failed at the node-expat@2.3.16 install script 'node-gyp rebuild'
I tried to install it vi npm
I also download the project and run npm install
same error everywhere.

any suggestions?
Regards,
S.

You probably don't have dependencies of node-gyp installed. See its installation readme. This requirement will be lifted soon.

@jjrv
thanks for your response

I have checked again the installation of node-gyp, everything seems ok.

~/node_modules $ node-gyp -v
v3.6.1

 ~/node_modules $ make -v

I tried to install it in ~/node_modules directory but I had no luck
I also download the project and run "npm install" but same error appears.
Is there something specific that should I check?
