gfx.js scm-0 is now built and installed in /usr/local/ (license: MIT)

did you use sudo for ubuntu? remember that /usr/local is not standard writeable on Ubuntu unlike OSX

It seems that it's not recognizing the [[ in the install script. I was using sh in the rock install directive, which probably defaults to bash in 99% envs, but not this time. I've patched the rock, to use bash explicitly. Can you try to install again?

[[ Not found error is gone:

But still failed the build:

I'm also getting this error. I didn't use sudo because I installed Node to a user directory (I don't have the superuser password). How do I provide the nodedir parameter so that I can tell it where my Node source directory is?

I get same problem here ! I think that the problem is on gfx.js somewhere

I too have what seems to be this issue. Using node 0.10.25, node-gyp 0.10.10.

Solved on linux-mint (ubuntu)!

In debian-derived "node" is packaged as "nodejs". As result it will fail in many cases. I solved the problem by:

ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

Thanks vchekan, that linking helped me.
