    The .deb isn't maintained by us, but by nodesource. What's more, npm isn't maintained by us either, only distributed. It's its own project. Can you report your issue over at https://npm.community/? Thanks.

    Seems like issue is solved in version 6.14.8.
    npm/cli#1682 (comment)
    Will it be included in to next release or some minor patching will be done? Node version 12 is also affected by the issue.
