Linux Install Issue #10

When following the README instructions for installation on Xubuntu, I'm getting a ton of the following errors (small sample below) during the babel install portion:

[flatn] downloading babel-core@^6.21.0 - https://registry.npmjs.org/babel-core/-/babel-core-6.26.0.tgz

And so on, ultimately failing with:

Download of babel-core@^6.21.0 failed: TypeError: Cannot read property 'writeLvInfo' of null
    at packageDownload (file:///home/ecgade/projects/lively.next/flatn/flatn-cjs.js:1049:17)

I have no idea why EXDEV is the error here; I do not have multiple mount points on this machine

This is an unforeseen interaction between flatn which we use to install packages so that all Lively and nodejs packages are only in one file system location but still locatable by nodejs and lively.installer which in addition links packages. The latter is not really necessary anymore, it was before we had flatn. I'll make a test and see if we can remove that.

Thanks for reporting!

OK, should be fixed now.
