I would suggest starting again, and following the instructions on the Wiki for installation on a RaspberryPI.
https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge/wiki/Running-HomeBridge-on-a-Raspberry-Pi
These are the most comprehensive.
Based on your original posting it appears that you are missing dependancies for mdns, likely this one
sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev
