How'd you get that? Can I see your package.json?

Also possible to reproduce using following docker one-liner:
docker run --rm node:latest /bin/bash -c "npm install -g pnpm; pnpm install laravel-elixir@^4.0.0"

npm info using npm@3.3.12
npm info using node@v5.5.0

shudder... let's see.

also, super clever with that docker one-liner, kudos!

Turns out this was an issue with the tar-stream package required by pnpm's tar-fs dependency. tar-stream didn't support parsing large uids and gids, instead returning NaN values.

I've submitted a pull request mafintosh/tar-stream#47 and this issue should be fixed once it's merged and published to npm.

This command now succeeds when you force npm to use my patched version of tar-stream:

docker run --rm node:latest /bin/bash -c "npm install -g brotchie/tar-stream pnpm; pnpm install laravel-elixir@^4.0.0"

[Ingramz]

The change in tar-stream has been merged and and a release has been made, which has automatically propagated to pnpm, so I believe this issue can be closed.

Nice work @brotchie!

Good job James..
