Unable to fetch package using "bower list"

[johjacb]

I've just installed normalize.css with bower, using "bower install normalize.scss --save" in a local Yeoman project on Mac 10.7.5.

Installation works fine, but when I attempt the command "bower list" I receive the output:

bower error Unable to fetch package normalize-scss (if the cache was deleted, run install again)

If I uninstall the package, "bower list" returns the installed components as expected.

I could very well be doing something wrong. Anybody else having a similar issue?

Ah! Finally figured out what the issues is. The project is called normalize-scss on github, but I had to register it as "normalize.scss" on bower because the namespace was taken. :-\

A very careful reader will note that it shows the proper command on the project README. https://github.com/JohnAlbin/normalize-scss#install

Here's what I get when I run the commands:

$ bower install --save normalize.scss
bower normalize.scss#*          cached git://github.com/JohnAlbin/normalize-scss.git#3.0.1+normalize.3.0.1
bower normalize.scss#*        validate 3.0.1+normalize.3.0.1 against git://github.com/JohnAlbin/normalize-scss.git#*
bower normalize.scss#~3.0.1+normalize.3.0.1          install normalize.scss#3.0.1+normalize.3.0.1

normalize.scss#3.0.1+normalize.3.0.1 bower_components/normalize.scss

$ bower list
bower check-new     Checking for new versions of the project dependencies..

Hmm… Actually, you did say you used the proper command. bower install normalize.scss --save

Weird. The error message bower error Unable to fetch package normalize-scss shows a different project name than it does when I do a bower list.
