isaacs/npm — Issue #2066: Missing additional logging details log (npm-debug.log). 1.1.0-beta-4

I cloned [substack/node-browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify/tree/4ef2e69852d09f520dc09b5ce4b9012cdde3a844) and when I ran npm install, there was an error.

The error may not be from npm, but npm is telling me (near the bottom) that there is a log file with more details, but there is not. I'm on Win7/Pro/32-bit.
