missing module => 'color-convert'

[ORESoftware]

On occasion I after a clean NPM install, I see:

 Error: Cannot find module 'color-convert'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:469:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:417:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:497:17)
    at require (internal/module.js:20:19)
    at Object.<anonymous> (/Users/alexamil/WebstormProjects/oresoftware/sumanjs/suman-debug/node_modules/ansi-styles/index.js:2:22)

when I run npm la color-convert I see:

└─┬ chalk@2.1.0
  │ Terminal string styling done right
  │ git+https://github.com/chalk/chalk.git
  │ https://github.com/chalk/chalk#readme
  └─┬ ansi-styles@3.2.0
    │ ANSI escape codes for styling strings in the terminal
    │ git+https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles.git
    │ https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles#readme
    └── UNMET DEPENDENCY color-convert@^1.9.0

npm ERR! missing: color-convert@^1.9.0, required by ansi-styles@3.2.0

I think maybe chalk should talk to ansi-styles and tell ansi-styles to fix their ship?

This has nothing to do with Chalk. It's an issue with npm. Make sure you're on the latest Node.js and npm version. Use the npm issue tracker for support.

@ORESoftware I just got this same error after installing something with chalk as a dependency. It's strange because everything else about the build was working fine so far. Did you end up figuring out what was causing it?
