Update your node.js installation.The following commands should do it (from here):

sudo npm cache clean -f sudo npm install -g n sudo n stable 

or reinstall node, then update npm.

First I removed node

apt-get purge node 

Then install node according to the distibution. Docs here .

Then

npm install npm@latest -g
