Trying to install truffle on Ubuntu 16.04 (on window I tried and failed). First I followed the simple instruction to install "npm install -g truffle" and later on followed this link . Still not able to get through. Please find the messages that I got on my terminal. Appreciate any help

  • npm version is 4.2.0. Would that not help? FYI node version is 7.9.0

to help people who have the same problem, this issue is caused by the npm. to resolve it try to update npm : 

 npm install -g npm

if it didn't work ran npm cache clean -f

Have you tested this recently? Latest IPFS should npm install cleanly on Ubuntu. Let me know if you experience something different.
