Unable to install on Solus

Hi guys,

I'm using Solus operating system with Node 6.11 & npm 5.0.3. During installation of sharp, I had an error like below:

2017-06-24T10:35:56+0300 <error> new.js:12 () Error: warning fsevents@1.1.2: The platform "linux" is incompatible with this module.

Hello, I don't have any experience of Solus, but it looks like it uses glibc 2.25.

Are you able to try the following change to your local binding.js file to see if it works?

- if (/(glibc|gnu libc|gentoo)/i.test(lddVersion)) {
+ if (/(glibc|gnu libc|gentoo|solus)/i.test(lddVersion)) {

Hi again!

Seems it's worked after I cloned the repo, changed the line and installed local file:

Great, thanks for confirming. Are you able to submit a PR with this change?
