yii2: bower-asset/jquery error installing advanced via composer

I’m trying to install the 2.0.12 advanced application via composer and run into an error which I’ve not been able to figure out yet.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Using the steps in the Guide: composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:^1.2.0" composer create-project yiisoft/yii2-app-advanced advanced 2.0.12

What is the expected result?

Working advanced apllication.

What do you get instead?
