Answer 1

Try running the following commands and then run npm install, this will take the node's default node-gyp module. (No need to have multiple as node package already provides that)

Updating the node & NPM

sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n 4.4.5
sudo npm install npm -g

Removing additional Node-gyp module

sudo npm uninstall node-gyp -g
sudo npm uninstall node-gyp
