I’m having a very similar issue.

I’ve setup Ghost for my new blog. I use it as a NPM Module.

I recently updated the blog from 0.7 to 0.8 then 0.9 with no issue.

But when I updated Ghost to the latest version (0.10.1) I got an error error:

Unhandled rejection TypeError: _.toPairs is not a function

The correct workaround would be to require the overrides file inside of your version of the index.jsfile. I realise it is not ideal, but it should solve your problem without waiting for another release.
