File /Users/$USERNAME/.node-gyp/0.10.15/common.gypi not found

[i11v]

In node-gyp 0.10.15 version there is not common.gypi file. I copied it from ~/.node-gyp/0.10.11/ to resolve this issue.

Something probably got borked during the node-gyp install process. What you did probably is fine but you could also have just deleted the ~/.node-gyp/0.10.15/ dir and node-gyp would try to re-install it.

The same happened to me but instead with node 0.10.24 and that @TooTallNate suggests doesn't worked for me, but it did what xomyaq tells.

same problem.
my version is 0.10.25 and don't know how to get a older version.
delete ~/.node-gyp/0.10.25/ doesn't work.

Also fail on a clean new install of OpenSuse-13.2. While a hard copy of /usr/share/node/common.gypi from an older installation worked for me, it looks like something is wrong within installer.

On a clean install with standard nodejs in place. Install command does not generate an error, but does not install /usr/share/node/common.gypi

sudo npm install -g node-gyp

OpenSuse-13.2/64bits
Nodejs: v0.10.31

@fulup-bzh
zypper in nodejs-devel fixed this for me, this package contains the missing file.

same problem for me while installing i2c

I was getting similar errors; in my case upgrading from node 5.11.x to 5.12 along with

rm -rf ~/.node_gyp ./node_modules

fixed it.

It ok, I installed Debian Jesse instead of Debian Wheezy in which the problem occurred and it was resolved
