custom builds error

[Leon-001]

Hi,
I tried to create a custom build, like it is described here:
http://openlayers.org/en/latest/doc/tutorials/custom-builds.html
$ mkdir openlayers
$ npm install openlayers

As result I get this message:
Failed at the [email protected] postinstall script 'node ./bin/closure-util.js update'.
Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.
If you do, this is most likely a problem with the closure-util package,
not with npm itself.
Tell the author that this fails on your system:
node ./bin/closure-util.js update

I am running this on Linux 4.4.0-97-generic (if this is of any interest).

Can you provide your npm and node version?
Do you have additional error message if you install closure-util: npm install closure-util

are behind a proxy that blocks *.exe download?

[Leon-001]

Can you provide your npm and node version?
npm: '3.5.2'
node: '4.2.6'

Do you have additional error message if you install closure-util: |npm
install closure-util|
The messages are quite similar. But I have found a little more information in the logfile:
