Error while compiling node-gyp (indirect dependency for labirinto)

[proycon]

I received reports that node-gyp, a dependency for node-sass with is in turn a dependency for labirinto, fails to compile on some systems:

I'm not sure what the exact cause is at this point. But often users do who install LaMachine locally are not interested in labirinto (the portal page) as they use the command line anyway, the problem can be circumvented by setting the configuration option ignore_npm_errors: "yes", either do so at installation time in your editor, or in an existing installation as follows:

lamachine-config ignore_npm_errors yes

Then simply run lamachine-update again.

Alternative, simply remove labirinto from the installation manifest at install time or using lamachine-update --edit in existing installations.

I removed the line of labirinto from the installation manifest by lamachine-update --edit and did the lamachine-update. The installation worked out successfully for me.
Thanks a ton.

The auto-correction option I tried to implement to fix this doesn't seem to help, I ran across this issue again now.

The new labirinto v0.2.6 should no longer have this problem
