Unable to install on WSL Ubuntu #87

Install doesn't find needed release for the target OS and goes to rebuild from source thus failing on that as well.

If complete logs are needed i'll be happy to provide them.

Well, it works as expected failing gracefully.

The reason for failing is that NPM 7 changes how it uses environment variables. We need to support it. As a matter of fact, I started to work on it today.

It should be fixed in 1.15.9. Please let me know if it works for you.

Thanks. Works like a charm once again :)
