Hi,
I tried to install with the instructions and fails on the RPi B+ with this on the logs
cake ensure:configuration

following is the error: i tried to run as root also replacing ubuntu with pi

> cake ensure:configuration

wCreating ~/.log.io/ for configuration files.
If this fails, run npm using a specific user: npm install -g log.io --user 'ubuntu'
fs.js:747
  return binding.mkdir(pathModule._makeLong(path),
                 ^

the user you are trying to install it with- does not have permission to edit certain directories that need to be edited in order to install this. run as root- or edit your permissions. :)

v0.4.3 is a full rewrite that uses node.js 12 and no longer requires root/sudo, so this issue should be resolved.
