errors with @vscode/sqlite3 node module

Hi, this is not a problem of gtfs-to-html itself, but related to nvm, but will still give a try. trying to install this with the following command: npm install gtfs-to-html --build-from-source --unsafe-perm --allow-root -g

and getting this:

> node-gyp rebuild

Tried all solutions, including uninstalling node, reinstalling, trying different versions (now using nvm use 14.18.1) with no luck..

Any hints ? Tried also using node with snap (but it got node 10 so too low for gtfs-to-html)

@brendannee mark as closed and solved please.

my solution was:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

as i had no python command in console, just python3...

Great solution. I'm testing out a version that uses a different node.js sqlite library, so hopefully this issue will be resolved in the future.
