Research direction

Start by reproducing the `sudo npm -g install keybase-installer` command on Fedora 21 x64 with Node v0.10.33, using the dependency warnings in the report as the starting point. Determine whether the warnings indicate a real installation problem; done means the dependency behavior is explained or the installation no longer emits the reported warnings.
