npm install -g yo command gives -> ERR! yo@1.1.0 p

Question

I just tried to do a npm install but get this error about doctor,js at the end. Do I need to worry about it?

npm install -g yo

EDIT____________--

for some reason node -v outputs nothing in terminal

I have the latest node installed:

To solve this problem you need to install the package nodejs-legacy.

sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
