Errors preventing install (via yarn)

I’m trying to get a start with a sage theme and I cannot seem to get it to install. I follow the base guide as laid out here: https://roots.io/docs/sage/9.x/installation/

I can run composer create-project and that seems to work fine, but once I move into the newly created directory and run yarn to install everything and get an explosion of messages in the terminal ending with the following error.

1 error generated.

I downgraded the the latest version of node to the LTS version, and I’ve tried searching for solutions online with little luck. Looking through the huge list of errors it seems like a problem compiling, the following lines in the long list of c++ commands stand out:

I tried running the erred command manually, to see if I got something a tad more useful and it seems to be related to node-gyp…

gyp: binding.gyp not found (cwd: /Users/x/Development/wordpress-playground/wp-content/themes/wtrt-theme) while trying to load binding.gyp

At this point I think the problem in related to node-gyp, but I’m hoping that someone else has had a similar problem and has a simple solution for it, I’d hate to spend a bunch of time trying to debug it when it’s straight forward. I’m not running anything weird or special on the development machine, so I can’t imagine I’m the only one to have seen this error.

I think this is probably related to https://github.com/roots/sage/issues/2466
