ぎょええ。。「TypeError: Cannot call method 'filter' of undefined」を調べると、npmの最新では治ってるYO！とあったので、バージョンを確認。

npmとnodeのバージョンは下記。

$ npm -v
1.1.45

$node -v
v0.8.4

npmはnodeのバージョンに依存しているようなので、nodeのバージョンを上げてみる。 nvmが早速役に立つとは。

nvm ls-remote

をするとなんとv0.11.8まえある。。v0.10.6まで上げてみる。

nvm install v0.10.6

で再チャレンジしたところ・・通ったーーー！
