Error installing an npm library with jspm

Question

I'm trying to install react-bootstrap-datetimepicker with jspm and I'm getting this error:

$ jspm install npm:react-bootstrap-datetimepicker
Password:

         at Error (native)

err  Error downloading npm:react-bootstrap-datetimepicker.

warn Installation changes not saved.

I can see that it's failing because there is no directory react-bootstrap-datetimepicker in

/Users/me/.jspm/packages/npm/react-bootstrap-datetimepicker@0.0.21/.

However, there is

/Users/me/.jspm/packages/npm/react-bootstrap-datetimepicker@0.0.21/lib/DateTimeField.js.

Does the react-bootstrap-datetimepicker code need to be modified so that it will work with jspm? Any other ideas what is causing this?

I logged an issue here.

It turns out this was a bug in jspm/npm. Here's the issue.
