Issue with non 'username' defined #2373
Description
Related to this, still an issue when the username is not defined, only the user ID e.g. that is common in 'non-root' containers for OpenShift https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.3/creating_images/guidelines.html#openshift-container-platform-specific-guidelines.
I have no name!@52545ce360b8$ node-gyp --help
os.js:272
throw new ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR(ctx);

Python is in the path so a good option could be to add a fallback or not return an error for the line
const username = process.env.USERNAME || process.env.USER || require('os').userInfo().username

@beltran-rubo I have a fix for this on a local branch. Having gotten this a little bit wrong the first time (as proved by your bug report), I am trying very hard to arrive at a design that is rock solid and with good code patterns.
That said, the simplest fix would be for
node-gypto not attemptos.userInfo()or to only attempt it in atry {}block.Once I am happy with the design (I think that can be today) I will post it as a PR. But if posting it right away as a Work-In-Progress PR would be helpful, I can do that as well.
