Hi,

I am trying to install chokidar in windows and it fails with below error:

C:\Users\Work>npm install chokidar
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/chokidar
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/chokidar

[email protected] postinstall C:\Users\Work\node_modules\chokidar
node setup-deps.js

The system cannot find the path specified.
npm ERR! [email protected] postinstall: node setup-deps.js
npm ERR! Exit status 1

npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the chokidar package,

Any help on how to fix this error is appreciated.

Dupe of #95. Seems to be an npm bug, but will become irrelevant soon anyway as the postinstall command will be removed. For now, install a prior version. npm install [email protected] should work.
