npm@3 shrinkwrap --dev error about browserify-shim

[bendrucker]

Browserify is not a dependency. It's a peer dependency. Browserify calls browserify-shim, not the other way around. Why don't you have it installed?

@bendrucker, I appreciate your reply.

In my case, I use [email protected] as a dependency, and [email protected] uses mux.js, and mux.js uses [email protected].
Actually I didn't add browserify and browserify-shim to my project package.json because I dont't need them.

It seems that mux.js should add 'browserify' to its 'dependencies'.(Well, I am not pretty sure...)

I am not familiar with browserify and browserify-shim, this time I'll manually add 'browserify' to my project package.json to solve this problem.

Sounds like mux.js expects to be built with browserify. Either way you can add browserify to your dependencies.
