I ran into install issues on Centos with one of the popular and useful 
packages ref.

when I do 
*npm install ref*

I get the following error: "Cannot find module '../'.

The offending line is
*var gyp = require('../')*

In my limited experience with nodejs I have never used this form of require.
What exactly is this supposed to resolve to?

Thanks the help.
