node-sass: build fails on Debian 7.0 x64

As a root I do: npm -g install node-sass

Here is the result:

/root/.nvm/v0.10.26/bin/node-sass -> /root/.nvm/v0.10.26/lib/node_modules/node-sass/bin/node-sass

> node-sass@0.8.6 install /root/.nvm/v0.10.26/lib/node_modules/node-sass
> node build.js

sh: 1: node: Permission denied

Any chance to fix it?

I got a similar error with (node 5.7.0, npm 3.7.3, node-sass@3.4.2, aliyun, ubuntu) like this:
