Installation invalid target problem.

[eloyucu]

Hello every one.
I am trying to install pi-pins on a node project on my raspberry pi b+ (to used a dependent library -nfr-) and I am finding that the target is not valid. Exactly what it says is:

npm ERR! Error: No compatible version found: epoll@'^0.1.3'
npm ERR! Valid install targets:

Why do I have this problem? and What could I do to solve it??
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I'll try look into this soon, in the meantime could you paste the npm-debug.log mentioned to http://gist.github.com and share a link here? Thanks!

I wonder if this is an issue with having an older node/npm install? From the list it gives, it should be able to find something compatible with "^0.1.3" but I wonder if your npm doesn't recognize that caret syntax or something? If you can try update at least npm (npm update -g npm?) that might help.

(Mostly just guessing here, though, sorry…even after setting up watchdog my RasPi seems to be in need of a physical reboot again and so I can't shell into it remotely and test.)

[natevw]

Yeah, this might be npm/npm#4984 and it does recommend updating npm.
