[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#705236: npm doesn't work with node v0.10.1

[Michael Gebetsroither]

Package: npm
Version: 1.1.4~dfsg-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I just had a nodejs application which was not compatible with nodejs 0.6
anymore and thus had to upgrade to 0.10 from experimental.

Though it seems npm from debian does not work on nodejs from experimental.

Error: npm doesn't work with node v0.10.1
Required: node at 0.6 || 0.7 || 0.8
    at /usr/share/npm/bin/npm-cli.js:67:23
    at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/share/npm/bin/npm-cli.js:87:3)
    at Module._compile (module.js:456:26)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:474:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:356:32)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:312:12)
    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:497:10)
    at startup (node.js:119:16)
    at node.js:901:3

ps.: node v0.10.3 with included npm works.
