Doesn't seem very far fetched to use a node package manager to install a node package tho?

Maybe not. But I'm not going to if I can help it, which is entirely doable by using Debian's package manager. And I avoid running things as root if I can help it. It's bad enough I need to run apt as root. The recent recent news hasn't increased my trust in npm.
