[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#758285: npm says "Segmentation fault"

[Michael Rouges]

Package: npm
Version: 1.4.21+ds-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When I try to install a module, about 1 time on 3, it installs correctly, for the rest, it fails with a "Segmentation fault" message.

$ npm install module_name

Totally useless package version when trying to install a module that have some external dependencies.
