Hi @distante, welcome to the community!
I am not entirely sure if this will help but the first thing that springs to mind would be the Node.js version you have in use. We’re currently using Node.js 16 which is the current LTS. In another recent case a Node.js upgrade has fixed problems around the sqlite module installation. Perhaps you could give this a go?
If this still fails, perhaps the n8n docker image might be worth a shot? This comes pre-built, so would hopefully cause less trouble/
