I am seeing the following issue when trying to install pty.js-11 on mac with node 0.11.11 where is wait.h supposed to come from?

Same issue OS X 10.9 node 0.10.24

Here is an explanation how to fix: https://github.com/clementfarabet/gfx.js/issues/17#issuecomment-47537686

It works to install pty.js but I can't install packages that depend it...

[JaKXz]

+1, seeing this issue with (stable) node v0.10.31 on OS X 10.9.4. Using @simonweil's solution for now, but it would be better if this was fixed in core considering it's breaking installs for other packages which depend on pty.js

I get the same issue, but for me the file /usr/include/util.h cannot be found.
