Node-Gyp can't find Python 3 #228

Open selfagency opened 2 years ago

This started happening to our builds recently:

I ran some checks inside the container and sure enough, there's no python3 available to the user. But...it comes standard in Ubuntu 16+. So what's up with that?

@proppy @DominicKramer your assistance would be greatly appreciated here as well

In case anyone else runs into this problem, I was able to get past it by adding this to the top of my Dockerfile, before FROM launcher.gcr.io/google/nodejs:

FROM ubuntu:16.04
RUN apt-get update -y
RUN apt-get install --no-install-recommends -y -q \
  apt-transport-https \
  build-essential \
  ca-certificates \
  curl \
  git \
  imagemagick \
  libkrb5-dev \
  netbase \
  python \
  python3
RUN apt-get upgrade -y
RUN apt-get clean

I am having the same issue.

I think https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/nodejs-docker/pull/227 would solve the issue with Ubuntu 18.04 having python3 by default.
