) I cannot install history.js using npm on Ubuntu 15.10.

Do you have any idea?

P.S Sorry for my English.

Solution

This is an old problem some packages don't support on some os. The same problem was occurring with [email protected] before npm 3.3.12 but it had fixed in 3.3.12.

Now in npm 3.5.3, it is again creating issues so you can wait for next build of npm.
