Always an error when I try to install

[artheus]

I try to install Crest on my laptop for local testing.
I'm running on an Ubuntu 13.10 machine.
I get this error:

# sudo npm install crest -g
.........
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/extsprintf/1.0.0

Seems like the crest/bin/server is not even created. I have tried running as root, with sudo and in a local project folder. Same error every time.

I can see that the Issue #1 references the same error. Though I can't see that this is what I am getting, since I've tried the fix of creating a blank .npmignore file. This does not fix this error for me.

Same error with 0.0.3 and 0.0.4. Version 0.0.2 can be installed but it does not have a bin directory :

Has this issue been resolved ?

Before you execute npm install -g, change in the file package.json:
"server": "./bin/server" to "server": "./bin/crest".

Regards!
