Error installing gettext-parser

[ghost]

I get this error when installing a grunt plugin that requires gettext-parse:

c:\work\cast-admin\node_modules\po2json\node_modules\gettext-parser\node_modules\iconv>node "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node-gyp-bin\\..\..\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild

npm WARN optional dep failed, continuing iconv@2.0.7

Do I need to have Python installed on my system for this to work correctly? Or is this what you meant when you write:

If you get a bunchload of warnings or (non fatal) errors when installing, it is ok. These are most probably generated by the optional iconv dependency.

Is there anything I can do to fix it?

This is a warning generated while trying to install optional iconv dependency. You should still be able to use gettext-parser on Windows, you can ignore this warning.
