"Failed at the postinstall script."

I'm converting a video.js plugin of mine into something that can be used like an npm module. Problem is, this plugin has a few dependencies, including vpaid-flash-clientWhen I try to have this module installed, I get this errornpm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno 255 npm ERR! vpaid-flash-client@0.1.9 postinstall: `bower install | ./flexSDK.sh` npm ERR! Exit status 255 npm ERR! npm ERR! Failed at the vpaid-flash-client@0.1.9 postinstall script. npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above. Granted 0.1.9 is a very old version, but using the latest version opens a more problematic can of worms: It won't even work. Using it in a node script results in the vpaid-flash-client module not being "found" and using it as part of the built script tag results in the error "VPAIDFLASHClient is not defined". Worse is that the library seems to be abandoned. So super-old version it is, assuming there's a way to get around that postinstall script issue.
