Error installing angular-cli with NPM on a fresh ubuntu install

Question

I just can't understand how to fix these peer dependencies.

I tried to install angular-cli with NPM globally but always results in:

npm ERR! Linux 3.19.0-25-generic
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/nodejs" "/usr/bin/npm" "install" "-g" "-f" "angular-cli"
npm ERR! node v4.6.0
npm ERR! npm  v2.15.9
npm ERR! code EPEERINVALID

npm ERR! peerinvalid The package @angular/compiler@2.1.0 does not satisfy its siblings' peerDependencies requirements!
npm ERR! peerinvalid Peer @angular/compiler-cli@0.6.4 wants @angular/compiler@2.0.2
npm ERR! peerinvalid Peer @angular/platform-server@2.1.0 wants @angular/compiler@2.1.0

I was thinking NPM was taking care of such version differences.. what's going on?

I tried what I found online: clearing cache, installing with --force, but nothing changes this. I feel like I'm missing something basic here.

Answer 1

i got the same error when i was installing the angular-cli with npm. but for me version was updated. 1)node v6.6.0

2)npm v3.10.3.

Then after i followed the following steps and the error was solved for me. Try this,it may help.

1.npm uninstall -g angular-cli

2.npm cache clean

3.npm install -g node-gyp

4.npm install -g node-pre-gyp

5.npm install -g angular-cli
