Error "ENOENT: no such file or directory" on building package

When trying to package my meteor app using electrify (version 2.1.4), I get the following error:

INFO  electrify:index:  initializing

When looking at the file it cannot find, it turns out to be a broken symlink with target "ben@ravus.42159". The folder does contains a valid file named "#README.md#", not sure if that has anything to do with this issue. Any ideas?

See #35. Looks like same issue to me. Limited to Linux I think. Pull request to fix it is extant.

Indeed, it looks like a linux specific issue, I tried building the same app on Windows and that works.
The fix in the pull request doesn't seem to solve this issue. I installed the package from the corresponding repository using:

sudo npm install -g git+https://github.com/gabrielstuff/electrify.git#59a2d8596dd9ffa25432423e42b74c3962b80213

But using this version results in the same error.

Well installing that package fixed my problem - electrify now packages under Linux Mint x64. Thank you.
