Any help much appreciated.

It seems you have a conflict with an older package that is getting in the way.
Try below commands helped me to resolve the issue, might help you too... these commands might need sudo access
npm cache clean -f
npm install -g n
n stable
npm install npm -g
So above solves the problem when there is any conflict in packages version.... but by looking at logs it says make: g++: Command not found Which means you need to install developer tools

have you tried installing node-gyp via apt-get install:
apt-get install node-gyp

The command g++ is not found, so you need to install the g++ package (along with build-essential which includes other packages that are required to build/compile programs):
sudo apt-get install build-essential g++

I'm not completely sure what is breaking the install, if fibers or somehow that python SyntaxError: invalid syntax
However, trying to install fibers individually throws same error. npm i -g fibers doesn't fix, neither changing npm configure set python /path/to/python. Deleting fibers momentarily keeps throwing same Python SyntaxError: invalid syntax error, this time with another node_module.
This is the solution to this issue.
Explanation:
Notice this part of your NPM error log:
npm ERR! gyp ERR! node-gyp -v v3.8.0
This means your code is trying to install node-gyp of the version 3.8.0
What is probably happening (this was in my case) you have a wrong NodeJS version, for node-gyp.
I searched for the right version of NodeJS for node-gyp 3.8.0, and the answer is below.
Solution:
Uninstall current NodeJS version
Install NodeJS Version 6.17.1 (if you need multiple NodeJS versions use NVM tool (Instructions For Windows/Linux/MacOS) https://www.nubo.eu/Install-Multiple-Node-Versions-On-Windows/
Run npm install in your project again
I got this error when I set a PATH variable incorrectly which meant npm and node couldn't be found correctly.
To diagnose this, I ran
npm --version
node --version
It said command not found, so I checked env | grep PATH which showed me that the location of npm and node weren't on PATH as they needed to be. Once I fixed that, everything worked as expected.
I got the same/similar issue without making any changes to version of node. I hate to be that guy, but after a day of struggling with it I decided to restart my machine. That fixed it...
The issue is that node-gyp tries to build with Python 2 syntax: print "%s.%s.%s" % sys.version_info[:3]; which throws an error probably because you have Python 3 on your computer.
This usually occurs when installing an outdated npm module which is not compatible with the current Node version on your system. Try installing Python 2 and set it to the path, or locate the offending module in package.json and then upgrade the version number to the one that is compatible with your current Node version.

I had to install the above windows-build-tools but had to install with npm install --global --production windows-build-tools --vs2015 as the newer versions of this tool are going to not compile the web3 utils correctly with the node-gyp dependency. I wrangled this one for a while after uninstalling an old install of Visual Studio 2015 a couple of weeks ago.

npm install for Hyperledger Tutorial Fails

I am currently working on a fresh minimal install of Ubuntu 16.0.4 using Hyperledger Fabric. I have pulled down a fresh install of the fabric samples from the Hyperledger documentation site. I have downloaded the following software:
node version 6.9.5
npm version 3.10.10
docker version 17.03.2-ce
golang version 1.7.6 (documentation now calls for newer version, but I think this is unrelated)
I can navigate to the fabcar directory which contains the default npm package.json. I first run ./startFabric as indicated in the instructions. I then run npm install, per the instructions. I then get the error:
u#ubmin2:~/fabric-samples/fabcar$ npm install
npm WARN deprecated crypto#0.0.3: This package is no longer supported. It's now a built-in Node module. If you've depended on crypto, you should switch to the one that's built-in.

Thank you.
The issue was that I was missing a necessary c++ compiler. It seems it was not included in the Ubuntu minimal installation, which makes sense, but the errors seemed very opaque. Running sudo apt install build-essential g++ seems to have solved the problem.
I'm not sure if it was necessary, but I also needed to add alias sudo='sudo env PATH=$PATH' to my .bashrc file so I could run npm with sudo. That solution came from this link.
