grunt-bower module not-found

[ghost]

When I try to install a new fireshell project, grunt-dev.command execution ends in an error saying :
Local Npm module "grunt-bower" not found. Is it installed ?

Complete output :

Warning: Task "bower:dev" not found. Use --force to continue.

Aborted due to warnings.

I have followed the getting started tutorial.

Suggestion : I have succesfully started fireshell projects in the past, this issue is recent (1 week maybe). Replicated in both ubuntu 12.04 & 14.04 (elementary os). I also use Phpstorm with nodejs plugin, which may be conflicting, but uninstalling it did not work.

Find npm-debug.log here

I come back with more info and a solution (a trick, not definitive...)
I had to manually install grunt-bower globally and locally.
I'll test further.

Am I the only one with this issue ? :(

@davidjbradshaw That worked perfectly, thank you! Cheers!

@ghost how did you install bower locally and globally, i'm having the exact same issue and when I run
npm install -g bower, grunt still asks if bower:dev is installed

[johnteakdigital]

Had this problem too. I reinstalled bower globally, but that still didn't work. The version you posted @davidjbradshaw worked. Thank you!
