Apologies. I should have appended the log.
Its a node-gyp dependency

Python is installed on this machine, but node-gyp does not support the installed version.
As per node-gyp docs python (v2.7 recommended, v3.x.x is not supported)

I would think that it would be best to list installation dependencies and setup /configuration dependencies
in the README.
