db-mysql installation error using npm - node.js

I am trying to install db-mysql module for node.js using
sudo npm install db-mysql
but I am getting the following error:
npm WARN package.json hbase#0.0.5 No repository field.

Is there any other command or version I need to use or install for db-mysql?

Here is the root cause of the problem
sh: 1: node-waf: not found
node-waf has been replaced by node-gyp in Node 0.8, so you won't be able to build this module, unless you will fork the module and will change it to use node-gyp. Basically, seems that db-mysql is not actively supported anymore.
As a replacement, you could use mysql module, which is actively supported.

You can try one of this method without having to sudo. Hope it'll work!

Trying to install npm on Raspberry Pi Error

I am working on a simple smart mirror project with javascript and electron. I was able to get the software working on my laptop but when I moved it to the raspberry pi I am having issues installing npm. After entering "npm install" I get this:

Any ideas what to do? Thanks!
EDIT:
I updated the node.js to a more current version and now it installed without error. However, when I typed in the command
npm start
I get this:

Have you seen this issue? Electron works only on RaspberryPi 2/3 what version are you using?
Also have you run npm install before actually run the app? Sometimes when copying node_modules from OS to OS the executable permissions get very confused.
You can try a fresh install with: rm -rf node_modules && npm install

I can see what is the error message. But I do not know haw do I get directory package-new-1e8tkgh instead of just package
I have correct versions of node and npm, that are mentioned in error:
npm ERR! node v0.10.45
npm ERR! npm v3.9.6
This was warking while I had meteor version 1.2.0.2 and I was using node version 0.10.40. But since meteor upgrade to 1.3.4.1 it stopped.
I also have visual studio 2012 and python 2.7 installed. ( as it says on some previous sources, that this was necessary to run and build meteor on windows. like this one )
OS is windows server 2012, I have tried on Win 7, 8 and 10 but it does not work. Event the old meteor version 1.2.0.2 was just working on Windows server 2012.
What should I do to get this working? Why is this happening at all. Should not I just install newer node version and go on. Like in this case from 0.10.40 to 0.10.45.
Please advise.

I'm pretty sure the problem has to do with the first section where it talks about node being installed. I know there's an issue with Debian where the node package is actually already taken, so they use nodejs instead. I don't know enough this to fix it, I've already tried running export node=nodejs and adding it to the ~/.bashrc. Does anyone have any ideas about what I can do? I've had this problem with other npm packages as well.
The nodejs executable is called node, not nodejs. So, just remove the line you added. (export node=nodejs)
If it still won't work: Try reinstall node via package management (apt-get/yum/dnf) or Try reinstall the executable and setup PATH from website (https://nodejs.org/en/download/).

This seems to be the cause of the error.
You probably just need to install the legacy nodejs package:
sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
for more info see Cannot install packages using node package manager in Ubuntu
Another alternative is to use nvm https://github.com/creationix/nvm#installation , which lets you switch between different versions of node
nvm install node --reinstall-packages-from=node
nvm alias default node

It seems to be a problem with your ghost package. So to test it, please start with ghost from scratch:
cd ../
mkdir ghosttest
cd ghosttest
wget https://ghost.org/zip/ghost-0.6.4.zip
unzip ghost-0.6.4.zip
npm install --production
npm start
If it does not work, try updating node.js and npm to the latest stable version.
