Deprecations from `tabtab@1.3.2`

[MikeMcC399]

Type of issue

Bug

My environment

• OS version/details: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
• Node version: v20.18.0 v22.13.1
• npm version: 10.8.2 10.9.2
• Version of yo : 5.0.0 5.1.0

Expected behavior

When executing

npm install yo -g

there should be no deprecation warnings output.

Current behavior

When executing

npm install yo -g

the following warnings are output

npm warn deprecated npmlog@2.0.4: This package is no longer supported.
npm warn deprecated are-we-there-yet@1.1.7: This package is no longer supported.
npm warn deprecated gauge@1.2.7: This package is no longer supported.
npm warn deprecated boolean@3.2.0: Package no longer supported. Contact Support at https://www.npmjs.com/support for more info.

Three of the above deprecations warnings are caused by tabtab@1.3.2 released 8 years ago.

tabtab@1.3.2 depends on the deprecated npmlog.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Execute

npm install yo -g

Command line output

npm warn deprecated npmlog@2.0.4: This package is no longer supported.
npm warn deprecated are-we-there-yet@1.1.7: This package is no longer supported.
npm warn deprecated gauge@1.2.7: This package is no longer supported.
npm warn deprecated boolean@3.2.0: Package no longer supported. Contact Support at https://www.npmjs.com/support for more inf

$ npm ls gauge -g
└─┬ yo@5.1.0
  └─┬ tabtab@1.3.2
    └─┬ npmlog@2.0.4
      └── gauge@1.2.7

$ npm ls are-we-there-yet -g
└─┬ yo@5.1.0
  └─┬ tabtab@1.3.2
    └─┬ npmlog@2.0.4
      └── are-we-there-yet@1.1.7

Suggestion

Update to tabtab@3.0.2 which no longer depends on npmlog.

• Bump tabtab to 2 or 3 (deprecation warnings on tabtab@1) #508

Updated for yo@5.1.0

Indeed. Duplicate of #508. Definitely accepting PRs. Whether it's easier to update to 2 first, then 3, or just skip straight to 3 is TBD. Thanks for reporting! 🎩
