This is a strange issue and I'm not sure it's a bug with npm itself, but maybe something is up with npm@4.0.1 -- so could you upload your npm-debug.log to a gist or similar so we can take a look? :)

Hi again!
i`m downgrade npm to version 3.10.9 and ghost installed!

PS
my system just created and installed only node + 2 mods + npm

zkat · 2016-10-27T17:17:47Z

@jourjine Thanks a lot for the npm-debug.log! I appreciate a lot that you're willing to give npm@next a shot and help find stuff like this. It's increeeedibly helpful to us.

This seems like a bug with some npm@4 changes to shrinkwrap. It seems -to me- that something funky might be happening with that specific shrinkwrap, but we shouldn't be crashing like this either way. Pinging @iarna too. :)

legodude17 · 2016-11-04T21:21:16Z

@SpainTrain, have you tried reinstalling npm?

buley · 2016-11-05T16:42:05Z

@legodude17 ran into this issue installing npm@4 today (v4.0.2).

I'm doing shrinkwrap on a OS X then shipping to a Linux environment. using 4 was the resolution proposed by #14042

I'm stuck because downgraded npm@3.10.8-9 (per @jourjine) doesn't have a fix for #14042

zkat · 2016-11-05T18:02:13Z

This is a bug. Reinstalling npm won't fix it. It'll be fixed soon, since I've already diagnosed it out.

@buley: npm@3.10.10 is out, with a fix for #14042

iarna · 2016-11-14T22:10:10Z

Clearing the milestone while we work on getting a consistent repro for this.

zkat · 2016-11-14T22:10:38Z

(if anyone is able to get a consistent, isolated test case for this, please let us know!)

You might want to completely reinstall npm, it looks like the
installation is busted. :/

reinstalling npm 3.10.8 solve the problem for me. ghost installed !
npm install npm@3.10.8 -g

Try installing npm from somewhere else, like the node installer.

No I didn't how ever I tried to do npm install instead of npm install --production and it solved my problem. I'm confused!
