Please also check reverse dependencies. Some of them are packaged for 
gitlab, but I'm not yet use it for gitlab. Since gitlab is only in 
unstable, dependency in unstable only is fine.

I need this for gitlab and the rc bug is only about extra binary 
package.

many node-d3* packages would benefit for tests if updated.

I think this was packaged for browserify.

I think this one was for npm.

all 4 needed for gitlab. I have been gradually replacing node modules 
installed directly from npmjs.com with packaged ones. I hope to complete 
this by bullseye release.
