node-gyp fails: /root/.node-gyp/5.0.0/common.gypi not found

See original GitHub issue

I first run ‘npm install --ignore-scripts’, then ‘npm rebuild’. It fails to build sqlite3, but here people had the same problem with another project: https://botbot.me/freenode/webtorrent/2015-11-01/?tz=America/Los_Angeles

Here is log:
