I believe semver 7 and 6 are largely identical except for node version support; downgrading to semver 6 should address it.

@ljharb I'll put up a PR shortly.

@SimenB does this mean that support for node 8 is dropped ? I don't see how this PR solves the current issue

[SimenB]

What? I have no idea how that's your conclusion - we've rolled back to a version that still supports older nodes, it's just not released yet

[f-roland]

My bad, I checked the wrong reference for the fix 🤦‍♂
Do you know when this is planned to be released ?

@SimenB any progress on a new release for this?
