Been trying to install Gpu.js but to no avail. Any help is highly appreciated.
python3 --version: 3.8.6
python --version: 3.8.6

Using Fish shell mostly, but bash yields same error.

Sigh, spending hours trying to get it to work.. decides to post an issue only to find an article moments later on the interwebs that solved the issue. What finally did the trick was..

sudo apt-get remove -y gyp 
sudo apt install -y curl bzip2 build-essential g++ python git make gcc gcc-multilib node-gyp 

Not sure which package solved it, but I'm a happy camper :)
