does not work for me. Using at extension, not at root.

You mean sudo composer? Because fxp is installed globally, that means on the home folder. As regular user that would be /home/mdmunir/.composer as root it would be /root/.composer.

I ran the same command as @cebe as normal user and it works, as root it shows me the same error you find.

[mdmunir]

@Faryshta I mean when use require in dependency composer, not in project composer. My project require mysoft/my-hansontable and mysoft/my-hansontable require bower-asset/handsontable. This is does not work for me if using version number.

[Faryshta]

can you provide a test case or something @mdmunir ?

It's always the case with the 1.2.x-dev version of this plugin?
