This package is obsolete, too difficult to maintain and to
update to a new upstream version, making it something that
shouldn't be shipped in next debian stable.
I've postponed that removal for years, believing one day
i'd find the time and motivation to update it, and that
never happened - i feel so sorry for that.
Please see also https://bugs.debian.org/857986 for the list
of reverse (build-) dependencies blocking the bug.
Cheers,
Jérémy.

Hi,
npm is no longer a key package and will therefore be removed eventually
(22nd of April is the current date). I am letting it stay for now to
give its remaining rdeps a few more days to discard their dependency.
Thanks,
~Niels
