@amalagaura The update hasn't been rolled out to npm yet. Sorry. Going to merge some stuff this weekend and will pump out a new version.

For now, you can try installing from a local checkout of master if you want? Clone the repo then do an npm install -g pointing at the local path to your checkout. This will have the latest change and should hopefuly fix your issue until we get a proper version out.

@stephenmelrose Thanks, I realized that after I posted and started looking at the releases so I deleted the comment ;-)

I did a crash course in npm and do the have head running locally now on the box. Thanks for your attention.
