title: Node.js Sodium install failure
body: <p>I have been getting some errors when trying to install Sodium and a couple others. They all have the same error (with different names of course). I tried to solve it myself but ended up not being able too. It also happens with node-opus and it also happens with hammerandchisel/erlpack. But with erlpack instead of it saying, </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>sodium@2.0.3 install: <code>node install.js --install</code></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>it says </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>erlpack@0.1.0 install: <code>node-gyp rebuild</code></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <pre><code>C:\Windows\System32&gt;npm install sodium
  
  &gt; sodium@2.0.3 preinstall C:\Windows\System32\node_modules\sodium
