Install fails on Ubuntu Trusty / Unity

sudo apt-get install libsecret-1-dev
solved the issue during electron-rebuild for me
hope it will be pretty much useful for someone else

It seems that you miss the libgnome-keyring-dev package as noted in the README.

I found solution here atom/atom#1948 (comment).

sudo apt-get install libgnome-keyring-dev
sudo npm config set python /usr/bin/python2 -g

@Pouja have installed libgnome-keyring-dev still have node-gyp rebuild error

[havenchyk]

@naholyr did you solve it? Works fine with library from the README

[Guria]

it was also required to run sudo apt-get install node-gyp for me as well

i got it working by manually installing two debian packages:
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libg/libgnome-keyring/libgnome-keyring-common_3.12.0-1_all.deb
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libg/libgnome-keyring/libgnome-keyring0_3.12.0-1+b2_amd64.deb

To build keytar on Linux you need to have these dependencies available: https://github.com/atom/node-keytar#on-linux

To use this as part of an application on Linux you need to also have installed a program that can interop with libsecret - gnome-keyring is a popular example that's available for plenty of distributions.
