Installing NodeBB on Amazon Linux. Using NodeJS 10.8.0 and when doing the installation and running ./nodebb setup it is giving this error...

Oops, we didn't not resolve this and moved to CentOS and there was no further issue.

Obviously it looks like benchpressjs is missing. So if I try to install that...

# npm install benchpressjs

> [email protected] install /opt/nodebb/node_modules/benchpressjs
> cd rust/benchpress-rs && npm install

sh: npm: command not found

I love how we get an npm command not found error... while running NPM!

Are the NPM binaries linked or in /usr/bin?
