Node.bcrypt.js: 'npm install bcrypt' fails on Ubuntu 17.04 64 bit

[acgrama]

My environment:
Ubuntu 17.04, 64 bit
ETA: downgraded to node v6.11.0, getting the same error
npm v4.2.0

I have followed the instructions for Ubuntu:
https://github.com/kelektiv/node.bcrypt.js/wiki/Installation-Instructions#ubuntu-and-derivatives---elementary-linux-mint-etc

The installation seems to hang on the node-pre-gyp build.

Stack trace:

$ npm install bcrypt

[email protected] install /XXXXXX/node_modules/bcrypt
node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build

Interestingly, I can install node-pre-gyp with npm, but node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build still fails.

Any advice? Thank you!

But I am able to install it just fine !
Could you attach the full npm-error.log ?

[acgrama]

Here you are!

Looks like an issue with python or gcc headers.

Same here

[cristian-sima]

Solved it.

You need this

sudo apt-get install build-essential g++

[acgrama]

Yep, that solved it for me, too! Thanks!
PS. Multumesc, ca de la roman la roman ;-)
