Update the composer and global dependencies without plugin option:

$ composer selfupdate
$ composer global update --no-plugins

If you still have an error is that the plugin is not the last vresion:

$ composer global require fxp/composer-asset-plugin:"^1.1.0" --no-plugins

+13

composer global require fxp/composer-asset-plugin:dev-master --no-plugins That worked. Thanks!

A new stable version v1.1.2 was released.

Try to reinstall from master if you still have problems:

composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:dev-master"
