Quickstart yields errors on npm install about kartotherian HOT 5 CLOSED

./util/has_lib.sh: 31: ./util/has_lib.sh: pkg-config: not found

Mind doing sudo apt-get install -y pkg-config libcairo2-dev libjpeg-dev libgif-dev and retrying? I think that should get you up and running. If so, I'll update the docs.

@mdholloway Indeed, that solved the issue for me. I then had an issue with mapnik-config not found, solved by sudo apt-get install -y libmapnik-dev.

Finally, I had an issue with the build step in mapnik. Looks like I was using a Node > 8 which was an issue, Node v8 works fine!

Thanks for the useful tips :)

Actually, when running the server, I got an issue from node_modules/@kartotherian/snapshot/lib/autoPosition.js. The line just before the line 21 ends with a comma while (I think) it should end with a ;. Changing this, the server starts correctly.

EDIT: Btw, I had issues with yarn as well. npm is safe and works.

The autoPosition.js typo was fixed in #80 and the docs were updated in #82. Thanks to @Phyks for the reports!

(Btw, if the yarn issue is still present, please feel free to open a new issue and elaborate a bit more on the problem.)

Thanks! I'll open a new issue for the yarn issue.
