Package: npm Version: 1.4.21+ds-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
The npm version is Debian Sid is 1.4.21 whereas the latest version released by npm is 5.3.0. The nodejs version is 6.11 which is up to date, but the nodejs documentation states it include npm 3.10.10. Thus the Debian npm set up is inconsistent as well as out of date. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.11.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages npm depends on: ii node-abbrev 1.0.9-1 ii node-ansi 0.3.0-2 ii node-ansi-color-table 1.0.0-1 ii node-archy 1.0.0-1 ii node-block-stream 0.0.9-1 ii node-fstream 1.0.10-1 ii node-fstream-ignore 0.0.6-2 ii node-github-url-from-git 1.4.0-1 ii node-glob 7.1.1-1 ii node-graceful-fs 4.1.11-1 ii node-gyp 3.4.0-1 ii node-inherits 2.0.3-1 ii node-ini 1.1.0-1 ii node-lockfile 0.4.1-1 ii node-lru-cache 4.0.2-1 ii node-minimatch 3.0.3-1 ii node-mkdirp 0.5.0-1 ii node-nopt 3.0.6-3 ii node-npmlog 0.0.4-1 ii node-once 1.4.0-2 ii node-osenv 0.1.0-1 ii node-read 1.0.7-1 ii node-read-package-json 1.2.4-1 ii node-request 2.26.1-1 ii node-retry 0.6.0-1 ii node-rimraf 2.5.4-3 ii node-semver 5.3.0-1 ii node-sha 1.2.3-1 ii node-slide 1.1.4-1 ii node-tar 2.2.1-1 ii node-underscore 1.8.3~dfsg-1 ii node-which 1.2.11-1 ii nodejs 6.11.2~dfsg-1 npm recommends no packages. npm suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
