[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#804633: npm: Please update npm to v3.x.x, at least for sid.

[Zane Tu]

Package: npm
Version: 1.4.21+ds-2
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

It's been more than a year since this package was last updated. Now the lastest
version is v3.4.0 and even v2.x.x can cause problems (eg
https://github.com/feross/webtorrent/issues/481#issuecomment-155241196). Please
update it at your earliest convenience.

Regards,
Zane
