I am trying to install protractor, following this guide:
https://angular.github.io/protractor/#/
On ubuntu in a shell, I typed: sudo npm install -g protractor
There is a whole bunch of info telling if the installation of some specific packages went good or not. Here I am getting some error on some packages. I have added the errors, and not added the ones that went well. Anyone has any idea on how to fix this problem.
Thanks for any help you can provide

On Ubuntu, the Node command is actually 'nodejs' whereas the Protractor installer is looking for 'node'.
Try running this:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
And then re-running the Protractor installation
sudo npm install -g protractor
