Please note that the prebuild branch is temporary and will be removed without warning - the forthcoming sharp v0.20.0 will contain its work.

The salient error in the problem you encountered was Error: Python executable \"/usr/local/bin/python\" is v3.6.4, which is not supported by gyp. - see https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation
