I fixed it upgrating electron-builder to 19.2.5.

Thanks for reporting, I will upgrade to the latest Electron and Electron-Builder in the next release.

Hi Orlando, I had similar issues on my machine (same os and npm version).

After some tries, I solved them simply upgrading npm.

Please, try to update your npm to latest (or at least 5.x)

You can do that easily with the following command: npm install -g npm

It should be enough ;)

This should be fixed now.
