Can't install Broker on Ubuntu 16 / Node v16.1.0

The command npm install streamr-broker --global breaks with the error:
path /usr/lib/node_modules/streamr-broker/node_modules/node-datachannel
npm ERR! command failed
Hey, you need to install some build tools from the looks of it.
Have you tried the suggested sudo apt-get install g++ ?
@harbu Thanks for the hint. Ok, after installing of g++ and fixing some python issues, i get an error This version of µWS is not compatible with your Node.js build
Probably I should wait for more detailed installation instructions ;)
Which node version are you using? We are using v14 so that should work best here. You can check your version with node --version.
Just tried with a fresh Ubuntu 21.04 x64 instance, same error. Node v16.2.0.
Ok, the broker is running. Don't work with Node.js 16.x, don't work with Node.js v15.x. Only Node.js v14 made the thing fly. Maybe that should be mentioned somewhere in the documentation? Ubuntu 21.04 comes with Node.js v16.2.
npm install streamr-broker --global install streamr-broker v22.0.0. The GitHub version (20.0.0) is outdated, so their configs are not compatible to v22.0.0 hosted on npm. FYI.
Another warnings after running broker configs/development-2.env.json:
could not connect to tracker ws://191.248.187.xxx:30301
Which IP address should be defined? The public one or the internal?
