NPM is 2.14 not 3.5.2 (using node:4.2-wheezy image)

NPM install fails for me, and it is reporting that the version is: 2.14.12, I believe this fixed in later versions of NPM but I am confused as to why I'm even using npm 2.

OK, I tried with 5 image, and still getting issue, so perhaps I have an issue with my server config.

Node.js v4.2.4 'Argon' (LTS) ships with npm 2.14.12.

From the Node.js v4.2.4 Changelog:

• deps: Upgrade to npm 2.14.12 (Kat Marchán) deps: upgrade to npm 2.14.12 node#4110

This is the true for the Official Node.js :4 and argon Docker Images:

$ docker run --rm -it node:4 npm --version
> 2.14.12

No problem, I'm just assumed wrongly it was old NPM. I'm looking into what is breaking certificate chain now!
