Do you have dependencies on the python verson?

[smartmouse]

If I have python 2.6.9 or less, npm install memcpy will fail. Please see error attached.
if I have python 2.7x , npm install memcpy will not encounter the follow issue.
You may want to update the readme on requirements if this is an indirect dependencies.
Thank you.

[testMemCpy]$ npm install memcpy

memcpy@0.5.0 install /usr/bot/testMemCpy/node_modules/memcpy
node-gyp configure build

[dcodeIO]

memcpy itself has no other dependencies than

    "dependencies": {
        "bindings": "~1.1",
        "nan": "~1.2.0"
    },

and requires node-gyp for building. Any dependency on Python is from node-gyp. While the error seems to have its origin with node-gyp, that's the file in question: https://github.com/dcodeIO/node-memcpy/blob/master/binding.gyp

File "binding.gyp", line 1

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Unfortunately, I am not exactly sure what's causing this issue.

Then most likely the node-gyp requires this version of python like what they stated 2.75 is recommended.
(but they did not say mandatory). so probably a question for node-gyp. Thanks you for responding to me..
