Solved by installing:
sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev
Hi thanks for the report.
Can you tell me whether npm actually failed downloading csscritic and putting it into node_modules?
Technically canvas is not necessary, but rather marked as optional. While npm tries to download canvas it will encounter the issues you've documented, but is expected to skip and finish up with errorlevel 1.
The line in question is https://github.com/HumbleSoftware/js-imagediff/blob/master/package.json#L23, using https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#optionaldependencies.
I agree that this is hugely irritating, and welcoming new users with an error message is bad, but I currently don't see a better solution.
Thanks a lot!
