For now, downgrade (or dual install) node to v6.9.0 to overcome this problem. This looks like fixed in a later version of grpc but I haven't gotten to the correct google-cloud/common version to get this fixed for the latest node version.

@vervaekejonathan this should be solved by my changes from #10, given it is using the latest packages and therefore there shouldn't be any need to compile the packages from scratch for later versions of Node.

I had this issue as well.

Installed and used v 6.9.0 and now I get this error message:
