Inherited project says to run npm install to install packages for project. But when I do I get the following error:
npm ERR! Invalid dependency type requested: alias
In the log I can see the following messages:
212 silly fetchPackageMetaData error for redux-form-7@npm:[email protected] Invalid dependency type requested: alias
...
2744 verbose stack Error: Invalid dependency type requested: alias

In package.json is the following:
{
"dependencies": {
"redux-form": "5.3.3",
"redux-form-7": "npm:[email protected]"
}
}
I've googled and searched SO but I can't find what this dependency syntax is meant to do or what the error means?
