Meteor.js 0.6.5.1 and Bootstrap 3

Question

I installed Bootstrap 3 in my Meteor.js 0.6.5.1 project via meteorite and did a "meteor remove" of the originally packaged bootstrap 2.3.2. But everytime I run "meteor" the old bootstrap package seems to be re-installed. Now my meteor project has 2 versions of bootstrap being loaded and its giving me conflicts...anyway to permanently remove the old bootstrap or is it dependent as part of Meteor.js 0.6.5.1?

Answer 1

You need to manually remove all the remnants of the package.

• Remove packagename from .meteor/packages file.
• Remove /packages/packagename folder. Also remove packagename from /packages/.gitignore if you've got that file.
• If you use meteorite, remove all traces of packagename from smart.json and force reload by running mrt install.

That should do it.

Answer 2

It looks like when I installed meteor-bootboxjs v3 it also installed bootstrap v2.3.x....next time I will look more closely @ the package.js.....
