Package: nodejs
Version: 20.19.4+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

@types/node, currently MUTed in nodejs,
took the bad habit of breaking typescript packages,
by doing breaking changes in the declared types.

Example of what I think would be better:
nodejs 20.19.4+dfsg-1
node-types-node 20.19.11-1

so that
node-proxy-agents
Build-Depends:
node-types-node >= 20.19.11~

instead of
node-types-node >= 20.19.4+dfsg~

It maybe possible that nodejs x.y.z+dfsg1-1 bundles @types/node version A,
and that nodejs x.y.z+dfsg2-1 bundles @types/node version B.

Some typescript sources need to be able to depend on the correct @types/node
version, and that is made harder by node-types-node being published with a 
version
that is the version of nodejs.
