NPM install sqlite3 error: node-gyp rebuild "No such file or directory"

Question

I can't seem to install sqlite3 via npm in OSX Snow Leopard and I haven't been able to determine why:

Any ideas? Cheers

What are your npm, node-gyp, gcc/g++, python, and make versions? My guess is that there is a version issue someplace, for example python 3.x.x is not supported by node-gyp — Matt Mullens

It looks like it is choking on python, is python in the path and what version is it? — Matt Mullens

Also it looks like TooTallNate just published a change like 2 hrs ago as well that might help related to stripping rc from the version number: github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp/commit/… .... try executing this: " python -c 'import platform; print(platform.python_version());' " — Matt Mullens

Python 2.7.5. I'm downloading Xcode because I had to swap hard drives a month ago - so, gcc and make aren't installed for now. In any case, they were installed in my other (fried) drive and it didn't work then, but leave no stone unturned. — nsmyself

On OSX, node-gyp depends on python 2.7, make, and gcc/g++. make, gcc and g++ can be installed by installing XCode and then using XCode to install the command line tools.
