When I run npm install in an Angular project I get these warnings:
npm WARN deprecated rimraf@2.7.1: Rimraf versions prior to v4 are no longer supported
npm WARN deprecated rimraf@3.0.2: Rimraf versions prior to v4 are no longer supported
After running npm ls rimraf I get this information:
angularapp@3.0.0 C:\myfolder\angularapp
├─┬ @angular-devkit/build-angular@18.2.12
│ ├─┬ karma@6.4.4
│ │ └── rimraf@3.0.2

│ └── rimraf@5.0.10
└─┬ karma-coverage-istanbul-reporter@3.0.3
└─┬ istanbul-lib-source-maps@3.0.6
└── rimraf@2.7.1
After running npm outdated I see that all my dependencies have "wanted" versions for Angular 18 which I use now so there is nothing to update.
Is it possible to remove this warning or update rimraf somehow?
No you can't, best you can do is raise a github issue on the project that has the issue del/selenium-webdriver/webdriver-manager/istanbul-lib-source-maps.
I needs to be fixed on the source project, which end users do not have control over.
