platform-ide-terminal giving this error

[grasscannoli]

• I have reset Atom to defaults prior to submitting report.
• I have not reset Atom to defaults prior to submitting report.

Description

It has been working very well for over two months (since I had previously installed it). It has kept giving this error given in the "Additional information section", at the end, in the debugger/upon pressing the "bug" icon at the bottom right corner. I have now tried to uninstall and reinstall it but it gives an error and refuses to install. The error seems to look like its the same. (The error given at the end is the output it gives after it breaks from installing)

Steps to reproduce

1. Direct issue pointed to by the debugger. Or if I try to reinstall it.

Expected behavior:
Find the terminal '+' symbol at the bottom left corner. Pressing it gives me the terminal ide.

Actual behavior:
Debugger reports a problem with the package.
Also no '+' symbol at the bottom.

Reproduces how often:
100%

I have the same error.
The day after yesterday was working fine, then I don't know what's happening.
