I note that 2.0.0 was released in mid 2015, and there have been a couple
of commits since -- would you happen to have asked the upstream author
if he's happy for 2.0.0 to be the version that gets locked into Debian
for 5+ years, or might perhaps prefer to release the current head as
2.0.1 say?

Also, I see that it uses os-homedir, the ponyfill of which seems
unlikely to get into Debian given this thread:

  http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/Bug-841196-ITP-node-os-homedir-Node-js-4-os-homedir-ponyfill-tt3962437.html#none

so I'm guessing you'll need to do something about that -- presumably
just depending upon a recent enough version of nodejs to ensure that you
don't need the ponyfill is sufficient?

Cheers, Phil.
