Unknown error with empty dependency list

[Scalahansolo]

When adding this package to my app, everything works fine. However, when I add my first dependency, I get the following error.

While building the application:

Hi! What's the location and contents of your bower.json?

[Scalahansolo]

I have tried in two separate locations. At the top level of my app. As well as at lib/bower/bower.json

Another thing that is probably worth mentioning. When I have an empty bower file in a completely fresh project, meteor starts up just fine. Once I add my package, I get the following error, but then when I remove that package from the deps list, the error persists.

Thanks, and contents of the file?

[Scalahansolo]

My bower file looks like this. Unfortunately, I cant share the actual package as it is proprietary. The package however, is just a set of UI styles along with some JS to accompany those.

{
  "name": "meteorfeather",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "dependencies": {
    "my package": "url for package"
  },
  "ignoredDependencies": [
    "jquery"
  ],
  "private": true
}

Does it work if you add a public bower package, eg backbone: 1.1.0? What is
the format of your url?

It works with react-bootstrap and react just. I am combing through the packages that are brought in through my deps chain, and the one major difference I have spotted so far is that they all contain a package.json file, and in many of those files there is a scripts field.

I am also trying to track down what JS files are getting brought in that are breaking things.

EDIT: In a bunch of the brought in packages through the deps chains, there is a dist folder. I continue to get errors until this file is deleted. Once that is gone, meteor starts.
