How to fix npm peer dependency issue?

Question

I have a package.json that has the following modules that are conflicting:

react-router which needs react 0.13.x
redbox-react which needs react@>=0.13.2 || ^0.14.0-rc1

I just did an npm install react and it installed [email protected]

I am trying to install react-bootstrap which needs react@>=0.14.0.

I have been a few solutions:

delete node_modules from all the node_modules of dependencies every time I update
delete and reinstall all modules every time you face an issue
upgrade to npm 3.x which is still pre-release and

What is a good way of fixing these issues without having to do 1 or 2 which is npm version agnostic.

P.S.: All the modules referred to here have been installed locally.

So if react-router needs react-0.13 - install v0.13. Otherwise it's not clear what your actual problem is: you either satisfy the version requirements, or you don't have packages working/installing properly. — zerkms

Ensure you have the latest version of react-router (currently 1.0.0-rc3).

The react module is only listed as a dev dependency, and the requested version is 0.14.0 so there shouldn't be any issues.

Thanks @nick, this fixes the problem for react-router. What can I do specifically for react-bootstrap and redbox-react and broadly speaking,in general to avoid the issue?

Hm, does react 0.14.0 not satisfy the requirements for those other modules?

I reinstalled react-bootstrap and redbox-react after uninstalling the existing versions which were complaining about the peer dependencies and it works. Thanks Nick, I will accept the answer and close this question.
