How to solve error "The module ... was compiled against a different Node.js version" when using authenticate-p

Similar questions suggest to delete the contents of the node_modules directory and run npm install again or npm rebuild authenticate-pam --update-binary. All of these did not work in my case (Ubuntu 22.04 running Node.js v17.9.1). When starting the application, I always get

Error: The module '.../node_modules/authenticate-pam/

build/Release/authenticate_pam.node'
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 72. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 102. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
the module (for instance, using `npm rebuild` or `npm install`).

}

I found out [1] that NODE_MODULE_VERSION 102 is the version installed on my system, whereas NODE_MODULE_VERSION 72 is version v12.22.12 (maybe the version the module was originally built against).

How can I solve this issue? Or is there any other method to authenticate my Node app's users using PAM?

EDIT: Meanwhile I found out that my system had node-gyp installed using APT (while Node itself is installed using Snap), but the version shipped with Ubuntu 22.04 is for Node 12.22.9. So I uninstalled it using APT and added it by running npm install -g node-gyp. Now when I run npm i authenticate-pam, I get an error: "npm ERR! command failed" In the log file I see these lines:
