When installing angular-cli using npm, process failed on brocolli install

[bwalker72956]

Potential bug or security issue with El Capitan OS.

I experienced a problem installing angular-cli on my mac. I was able to get the package to install by using the following command:
sudo npm install -g angular-cli --unsafe-perm=true

I think it may be an issue with El Capitan. Thought others might want to know about this potential workaround. Everything appears to be working correctly after install.

1. OS. Mac OSX (El Capitan)

2. Versions.

   ng --version:
   angular-cli: 0.0.29
   node: 4.4.1
   os: darwin x64

   node --version: v4.4.1

   npm --version: 2.14.20

   npm info angular-cli:

1. Useful details: I was able to get the package to install by using the following command:
   sudo npm install -g angular-cli --unsafe-perm=true
   I think it may be an issue with El Capitan.
