I linked gooey, one of my projects, to another project: ember, now i wanted to unlink them so i did npm unlink then npm start didn't work no matter what i did. things I've tried: npm install several times, bower install several times, rm -rf node_modules rm -rf bower_components npm install several times npm start kept giving errors, like can't find some file in gooey or tell author that ember server failed
