  No idea wht is going one. NO changes as been made !</p>
  
  <p>Tried to reinstall npm and bower, no changes ! </p>
  
  <pre><code>rake bower:install
  bower.js files generated
  /usr/local/bin/bower install -p 
  bower                        ENOTFOUND Package dsl-generated dependencies=./vendor/assets/bower.json not found
