https://github.com/harthur/nomnom/issues/81

nomnom is no longer maintained, so npm takes the project over, & makes a 2.0.0 update which is empty besides a README saying it's deprecated. Which breaks some packages which have a '>=1.2' version. So npm deletes 2.0.0. Which breaks for people who have had their package.json update from 2.0.0. Even when they'd had a system working with 2.0.0 (not even using nomnom, just a depedency of a dependency for the commandline portion that isn't being used) & were ready to deploy

In Rustland you can't publish a crate with '>=1.2' dependencies

I’m pretty sure you can, I thought we only outlaw *.
