Currently the package.json seems to specify the nove-vboxmanage dependency with a github: prefix package.json:36

This doesn't seem to conform to any of the currently supported ways of specifying a GH repo in the dependencies, and npm (1.4.21) fails to retrieve it as it attempts to clone git@github.com:github:

npm ERR! git clone git@github.com:github:davidmarkclements/node-vboxmanage Cloning into bare repository '/home/dnwe/.npm/_git-remotes/git-github-com-github-davidmarkclements-node-vboxmanage-e88d0b9c'...
npm ERR! git clone git@github.com:github:davidmarkclements/node-vboxmanage fatal: remote error: 
npm ERR! git clone git@github.com:github:davidmarkclements/node-vboxmanage    is not a valid repository name
npm ERR! git clone git@github.com:github:davidmarkclements/node-vboxmanage   Email support@github.com for help

Changing to one of the supported forms allows the install to succeed
