NPME unpublish 500

[jcantosz]

I am running npme version 4.3.0. I would like to clean up prerelease versions that have been published to a NPME registry.

When I try to unpublish new packages (<24 hr), the command exits with a 0, and the item is removed from the versions list (as seen with npm view).

When I try to unpublish older packages normally, or using --force I get a 500. I know the public registry will not let you unpublish packages >24 hrs old. Is there a setting I need to change to allow this on NPME?

NPM unpublish

$ npm unpublish @<scope>/test-package@0.0.1 --force
npm WARN using --force I sure hope you know what you are doing.
