Can install node-debug2 in old versions of vscode

[roblourens]

I can install node-debug2 in Code stable 1.5, even though it has a dependency on 1.6.0.

Exactly the same as node-debug, which shows the correct error message - https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-node-debug/blob/master/package.json#L24

I can't figure out what the difference is. I also don't know how to debug the gallery service code - I think it runs in a separate process?

This is troublesome. Due to the extension not having a main field in the package.json, the version check doesn't work... Fixed today for future versions... but can't really fix old versions any more. :(

I published an extension that requires ^1.7.0, and has no 'main', and when I try to install it, I see "Extension not found". If it has a lower engine required, I can install it.

Try installing test-extension-pack-1, published by roblourens

Oh... node-debug2 is just like this extension...

This is what I see when I try to install 99Ztest-extension-pack-1 by roblourens, on a 1.6.0 version.
