Npm nasty update

just in case you would be under linux, and thinking of updating npm , make sure you install 5.7.1, not 5.7.0

I’ve been following this closely, it’s worth mentioning that the bug only effects you if you’re running your npm commands with sudo, as a none-root user, like this:

shane@mi-ubuntu~$ sudo npm install

But if you run the commands as yourself:

 shane@mi-ubuntu~$ npm install

Or su in to a root user before running them:

 shane@mi-ubuntu~$ sudo su
 [sudo] password for shane:
 root@mi-ubuntu~$ npm install

You’ll be fine. :slight_smile:
