I got the same problem here.

Steps to reproduce:

Created a new angular 2 library with the version 6.0.0 of the generator
Updated package.json with Angular 4 dependencies
Deleted node_modules
Run npm install

The error

ng2-rest-base-client $ npm install

> rest-base-client@0.1.0 prepublish D:\Projects\IPLeiria\candidaturas\ng2-rest-base-client
