dependency conflict on typescript-compiler

[marc-portier]

trying to install preview-plus 1.2.7

I'm getting this:

npm WARN deprecated react-tools@0.12.2: react-tools is deprecated. For more information, visit https://fb.me/react-tools-deprecated

upon inspection typescript compiler version 1.4.1 seems to be available

$ ls -l ~/.atom/.apm/typescript-compiler/
total 4
drwxrwxr-x 3 mpo mpo 4096 dec  4 16:01 1.4.1

any suggestions on how to get around this?
