This package is in contrib and not main.

"The contrib archive area contains supplemental packages intended to
work with the Debian distribution, but which require software outside of
the distribution to either build or function."

It requires packages from npmjs.com to build.

But this is a temporary arrangement to bootstrap as it has a circular
dependency on node-babylon.
