Error when running npm install on Debian w/o m4 installed #7
Description
m4 isn't installed by default on all Debian, so we run into an error trying to run the following:
eval $(dependencyEnv) && nopam && sh -exc echo | m4 && (opam-installer --prefix=$opam_prefix || true)
I manually installed m4 and re-ran, and then it worked.
Here is full log from NPM:

13498 error Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.
13498 error If you do, this is most likely a problem with the conf-m4-actual package,
13498 error not with npm itself.
13498 error Tell the author that this fails on your system:
13498 error eval $(dependencyEnv) && nopam && sh -exc echo | m4 && (opam-installer --prefix=$opam_prefix || true)
13498 error You can get information on how to open an issue for this project with:
13498 error npm bugs conf-m4-actual
13498 error Or if that isn't available, you can get their info via:
13498 error npm owner ls conf-m4-actual
13498 error There is likely additional logging output above.
