What I Wanted to Do
I tried to install node-sspi using npm install node-sspi
What Happened Instead
The installation failed with a 404 not found error
npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: node-sppi@latest
I checked the error log and the registry request failed:
7 http fetch GET 404 https://registry.npmjs.org/node-sppi 624ms
8 silly fetchPackageMetaData error for node-sppi@latest 404 Not Found: node-sppi@latest
Sure enough, simply trying to browse to https://registry.npmjs.org/node-sppi returned an empty not found JSON instead of the package details.
Reproduction Steps
Simply try to run npm install node-sppi
Details
The npmjs page for the package is still up, and as far as I can tell, there have been no changes to the project on here or on GitHub. I installed the same package successfully as recently as last week (August 21) so something has happened in the past eight days.
