Cannot install in Ubuntu 16.04

This is the output I get, when trying to install NyaoVim.

/usr/bin/nyaovim -> /usr/lib/node_modules/nyaovim/bin/cli.js

> [email protected] postinstall /usr/lib/node_modules/nyaovim/node_modules/electron
> node install.js

Could you try solution mentioned in #127 ?

[qazip]

What solution? There is no solution in that issue. If you mean sudo npm i -g electron, then no, it doesnt work:

/usr/bin/electron -> /usr/lib/node_modules/electron/cli.js

> [email protected] postinstall /usr/lib/node_modules/electron
> node install.js

/usr/lib/node_modules/electron/install.js:47
