cannot install browserify using npm on os x 10.10

[dszabo]

I installed node and npm using this information: https://gist.github.com/DanHerbert/9520689
node: v0.12.0 npm: 2.9.0

However, still, when I try to install browserify with npm install -g browserify, I get this:

bash-3.2$ npm install -g browserify
npm ERR! Darwin 14.3.0
npm ERR! argv "node" "/Users/iwo/.node/bin/npm" "install" "-g" "browserify"
npm ERR! node v0.12.0
npm ERR! npm  v2.9.0
npm ERR! code ETARGET

npm ERR! notarget No compatible version found: JSONStream@'>=1.0.3 <2.0.0'

Could someone please enlighten me? Thanks!

Thanks for your report. The recent npm update has grown an unexpected preference against module names with capital letters, and we're currently fixing the dependences.

Fixed now in browserify@10.1.2

Resolved in browserify@10.1.2. For older browserify releases, go back to npm@2.8.x for the time being.

last few releases of cordova are all breaking now because of this. Using an older version of npm doesn't seem to help. Something on the registry must have changed.

thanks for the quick fix

go back to npm@2.8.x for the time being. It seems it affects more versions of npm. There is an ongoing discussion in #1247.

browserify@10.1.2 works perfectly. It seems to only affect 5.0.0-10.1.1.
