title: npm install sqlite3 error on BeagleBone Black
body: <p>I can not seem to install SQLite3 for NODE.JS on my BeagleBone Black.
  No matter what I do I end up with a variety of errors depending on what I try.
  I have read and tried a couple of threads on stack overflow to no avail.</p>
  
  <p>The last try I did was after running</p>
  
  <pre><code>  sudo npm install -g node-gyp, sudo apt-get install build-essential
    sudo apt-get install python-software-properties python g++ make
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and then finally I ran</p>
  
  <pre><code> sudo npm install sqlite3 --build-from-source 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But to no avail and en entire day wasted I get the following -> </p>
  
  <pre><code>npm ERR! node v4.0.0
  npm ERR! npm  v2.14.2
  npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE

  <p>This is when I simply go
      sudo npm install sqlite3</p>
