Error installing libv8

I tried installing libv8 v3.16.14.3 using the following command

gem install libv8 -v '3.16.14.3'

I got the following output.

Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit...
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing libv8:

I am confused how to resolve this issue.

Can someone please help me out here please.

libv8 requires python 2 to be installed in order to build, but it is currently not available (RuntimeError)
