Error running jspm build: "Error: Cannot find module 'process'"

[nimajneb]

Hi,

I'm trying to build a static version of an application using jspm 0.17-beta.27 and plugin-babel 0.0.13. On my development system everything works just fine, but when I try to run the build process on the target system, I can't seem to get it to work.

To reproduce, I assembled a test case here: https://github.com/nimajneb/jspm-babel-test

$ jspm build src/app.js 
     Creating the single-file build for src/app.js...

err  (SystemJS) module.js:338
      throw err;
      ^
  Cannot find module 'process'
  module.js:338
      throw err;

The target system only has node 0.12.2 and npm 3.3.4 installed, whereas on my development system I use node 5.9.0 and npm 3.8.3. However, I couldn't find any information on minimum requirements of the babel plugin. Could that be an issue?

Cheers,
Benjamin

jspm 0.17 does require Node 4 or Node 6.
