I am having the same issue while trying to setup. Please re-open the issue.

Operating System / Version / Architecture: Ubuntu 16.04.3, x64
Browser type and version, including any add-ons: Firefox v57
Rocket.Chat version: 0.60.0-develop
Expected behavior: meteor npm install install all packages and start the app
Actual behavior:

npm ERR! Cannot read property '0' of undefined

Can the bug consistently be reproduced? If so, how?

1. Download NVM
2. Install and run node lts/carbon
3. run meteor npm install or meteor npm start
