Composer Update generating "File Not Found" error

I am developing a Laravel app and am getting ready to stage the code. However when I ran a final composer update to verify everything, I get the following error:

$ composer update
Loading composer repositories with package information

  [UnexpectedValueException]
  RecursiveDirectoryIterator::__construct(packages): failed to open dir: No such file or directory

I have tried clearing the composer cache with composer clearcache. I have tried dumping autoloads with composer dumpautoloads.

I am sure that it is something that I have done, but it seemed to just happen out of no where.

Below is my composer.json

{
    "name": "test/tickets",
    "description": "Ticketing System",
    "type": "project",
    "require": {
        "laravel/framework": "5.0.*",
        "laravel/socialite": "~2.0",
        "illuminate/html": "^5.0",
        "guzzlehttp/guzzle": "~5.0",
        "contao-community-alliance/composer-client": "~0.14"
    },
    "license": "MIT",
    "authors": [
        {
            "name": "",
            "email": ""
        }
    ],
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "composer",
            "url": "https://legacy-packages-via.contao-community-alliance.org/"
        },
        {
            "type": "artifact",
            "url": "packages"
        }
    ],
    "config": {
        "component-dir": "../assets/components"
    }
}

Any direction that you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I ended up creating a new,clean composer.json using composer init and only requiring the necessary packages (basically the same as above without the composer-client). I then removed the entire vendor directory with rm -rf vendor and ran composer install. Everything was then downloaded and installed successfully. composer update works now.
