I tried to install some packages for my BrowserQuest Server.

I used: npm install -d

Node Version v0.10.21

NPM Version v 1.3.11

OS Debian 7.0 Wheezy

Errors:

I had a similar problem on ubuntu 12.10, and it was SSL related. Until i had figured it out, disabling https could solve things for a moment:

npm set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
