not a valid repository name

I'm trying to run bootstrap on my Raspberry Pi 1 B+ but npm is giving me the following errors:

As far as I know I have all the requirements installed. I also authenticated towards github.

Nevermind, I found the solution. My npm was outdated.

For some reason the latest version of npm for my raspberry pi was v1.4.21, even after an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. I had to use sudo npm install -g npm twice to get to the latest version.

In a completely unrelated project I struggled with this for hours... following @rourke exact steps I finally got around this blocker. Thanks!
