Installation Issues With Iron-router (newest) On Windows 7 X64 (meteor 0.8.3)

I'm attempting to install (via cloned repository) 'iron-router' for my Meteor project in Windows 7. ( Repo: https://github.com/EventedMind/iron-router ) The output is the followin

Solution 1:

The changelog specifies that iron:router@0.9.0 just came out on 2014-08-12.

The latest version of iron:router has been updated to use the new package system which can only be used with meteor 0.9 release candidates.

From your error log, I can tell the iron-router version you cloned from the repo is actually the latest designed for the new package system (deps@1.0.0 used to be just deps without version number) and it complains that it can't find the meteor core packages it depends on, because you're probably running meteor 0.8.3 instead of 0.9-rc?.

What you need to do is fetch iron-router v0.8.2 from the git repo, the commit sha1 is 05415a8891ea87a00fb1e2388585f2ca5a38e0da
