npm install error #123
Description
The following error would come up for some users on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS when trying to set up the code repo for the first time :
> node ./build.js
gyp ERR! build error
gyp ERR! stack Error: not found: make
gyp ERR! stack at getNotFoundError `
It requires the build-essential package which can be installed by running the following on the terminal:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Reason:
The Program make is the missing dependency and the build-essential package installs it along with other build tools like g++. This is needed to compile node.
