Thanks

@Stoffbeuteluwe

Really need to fix this

 EACCES user "root" does not have permission to access the dev dir "/Users/patrickhahn/

The assumption is that root can access everything

See

https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/issues/454

Need an extra parm on sudo command

sudo npm install --unsafe-perm --verbose -g

sdetweil

I have a new install script in test. I will check for Mac and add this parm

Ok thanks
