Can't Install Learnyounode. Various errors received.

I was browsing the NodeSchool website and wanted to install the learnyounode tutorial package. When trying to install, I've tried everything. I've reinstalled NPM and Node. Installed NVM. Changed directories. Nothing seems to be fixing the installation errors I'm receiving.

Now, I've installed other tutorials from the NodeSchool website and they installed and are working completely fine. I'm only having trouble with learnyounode.

Below is the terminal output and error log.

[noly@lenovog ~]$ npm i learnyounode

Note: I have tried installing globally as well with the same results.
