When I'm trying to install strongloop on Debian, I have this:

# npm install -g strongloop

Stable Nodejs is installed from official repository via apt-get install nodejs globally. So node_modules in the /usr/lib/node_modules folder not in the local folder.

# node -v
v8.9.4
# npm -v
5.6.0
# ls /usr/lib/node_modules/
express  express-generator  npm  strong-cli  strongloop  undefined  yo

I have googled a bit and tried # npm install -g strongloop --allow-root the same result. Also I have tried:

# npm install --unsafe-perm -g strongloop

It looks like working but without some additional dependencies and strong-debuger. Is it normal?

So what about this depreciation warnings and security issues? Strongloop is so vulnerable?
