node-gyp not executed on npm@3

[piranna]

I've downloaded node-canvas using git clone (I'm modifying it), but after upgrading to npm@3 and deleting the build, node_modules and deps folders, when doing npm install the dependencies get installed but node-gyp don't get executed and due to this, node-canvas module don't gets compiled. npm don't show any error nor get any error status code.

Yup, sure looks like a bug. Easy to repro too.

Aand, yeah, we just explicitly weren't running the install lifecycle on the top level module. oops!

This landed in master as 3cb6ad2 and will be in the 3.1.0 release.

Thank you :-) Just curious, why not in 3.0.0? It's not still released...
