I had the same problem using Docker, both on CENTOS 7 and RHEL 7 base images... do the following:

RUN yum install -y make gcc*

Worked perfectly for me!

If you are using Windows and npm, install it through cmd (Administrator):

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

Answer 3

Simple Solution:

sudo apt-get install build-essential

and try again

Answer 4

Which OS are you using?

If it's Ubuntu you'll need to install the build-essential package:

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential

Then try to install the package again.
