npm install mongoose causes gyp and kerberos errors (gssapi/gssapi.h file not found)

Question

Ubuntu 14.04

nodejs version is v4.1.1 installed with these commands:

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

mongodb installed via mongodb docs tutorial

Next I tried installing mongoose by doing

sudo npm install mongoose

I received the following error:

Any ideas as to what my issue(s) are?

Answer 1

Try installing the Kerberos Development Package:

apt-get install libkrb5-dev

Answer 2

Solution for Dockerfile don't miss apt-get update

RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y libkrb5-dev

Because you have an error.

E: Package 'libkrb5-dev' has no installation candidate
