SyntaxError when running the configure script #937

I was doing a fresh install of the software, I just cloned it on my machine and ran $ ./configure in it, and it directly spit me out the following error:

  File "./configure", line 409
    '''
      ^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print(int '''Node.js configure error: No acceptable C compiler found!

        Please make sure you have a C compiler installed on your system and/or
        consider adjusting the CC environment variable if you installed
        it in a non-standard prefix.
        ''')?

When looking at the file, this is what there is at the spot it showed me:

print '''Node.js configure error: No acceptable C compiler found!
        Please make sure you have a C compiler installed on your system and/or
        consider adjusting the CC environment variable if you installed
        it in a non-standard prefix.
        '''

This is very disturbing, because the python print syntax is - if I remember correctly: print("stuff")

Is it an issue with my python interpreter? Since the build is passing on travis and the same thing is found all over the place in the ./configure script and since there is no issue mentioning this, it has to be an error on my side
