'yotta build' fails with "error: command ['ninja'] failed"

[Lithimlin]

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and want to use bbc-microbit-classic-gcc as my target for this. I have the correct gcc-arm-embedded compiler installed. I have also followed the installation guide to yotta on yottabuild.org.
When trying to use 'yt build' however, I get the following error:

I previously installed the modules needed via 'yotta install calliope-mini/microbit since I'm trying to program a calliope mini. I suspect the error lies somehwere there inside one of their modules but I wanted to make sure first.

does it work? i met the erro too.

you need scecord
