Tanks for the lookup Jérémy ! From here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-uuid it says "node-uuid DEPRECATED: Use the uuid package instead." It appears node-uuid was a fork, then it got merged back. There are two github projects both confusingly called "node-uuid": - current: https://github.com/kelektiv/node-uuid is at 3.1.0 - deprecated: https://github.com/brrofs/node-uuid is at 3.0.0 The debian node-uuid source package upstream is the "deprecated" fork. That's why the tracker says "a new upstream version is available: 3.0.0" and not 3.1.0 In the light of these facts I am even more convinced that it should be renamed. Additionally its upstream should be set to https://github.com/kelektiv/node-uuid Paolo -- Pkg-javascript-devel mailing list Pkg-javascript-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-javascript-devel
