We just got a C.H.I.P. mini pc by Next Thing Co and we are trying to install bleacon just like we do under Raspbian OS on a Raspberry Pi, but it just doesn’t want to install?

Using - sudo npm install bleacon

Hi @dev-prairedogtech,

Please follow thing node-gyp prerequisites: https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation

You are missing make which is included with build-essential I believe ...

I had installed an older version of node on the C.H.I.P - v 4.2.1 I believe. I instead installed the latest version of node v 7.2.0 and also installed build-essential and things seem to be working fine now.
