does not install right when you don't have a ~/.bashrc file

[pgte]

I don't have a ~/.bashrc file.
When doing
$ npm install nvm:

npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm info using npm@0.2.17
npm info using node@v0.4.0
npm info fetch http://registry.npmjs.org/nvm/-/nvm-0.0.6.tgz
npm info calculating sha1 /var/folders/OA/OAqqioLWF4KIMLzczVv9UE+++TI/-Tmp-/npm-1297686040437/1297686040437-0.6327376058325171/tmp.tgz

npm info preinstall nvm@0.0.6
npm info install nvm@0.0.6
cat: /Users/pedroteixeira/.bashrc: No such file or directory

To use nvm, source your .bashrc file like this:
. ~/.bashrc
or log out and back into your terminal.

npm info postinstall nvm@0.0.6
npm info preactivate nvm@0.0.6
npm info activate nvm@0.0.6
npm info postactivate nvm@0.0.6
npm info build Success: nvm@0.0.6
npm ok

Npm says it's ok, but the nvm binary is not installed.

If I create an empty ~/.bashrc all installs ok.

I don't support npm installing nvm anymore, so closing.
