Symlink missing for leveldown? Get error message trying to start norch, install suggested package (leveldown) and get same message. Running norch-stuff globally since I'm not tinkering with that part of the search solution.

$ norch

Yes, npm update has weaker dependency management compared with npm install

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12478679/npm-install-vs-update-whats-the-difference

Hmmm, I wonder if npm install -g --force is the best way to get the latest version

That did the trick!
