No hack... just the author breaking his package on purpose. he did the same with faker.js

the problem also exists on 1.4.0 suddenly!
is there any workaround for libraries such as gulp-nodemon which is using this version as sub-dependencies?

Are you sure you're using 1.4.0?
I'm not having any issues.

No problem.
I closed my PR because I've never contributed to an open source project and am not sure i'm doing it right.

The PR is trying to merge into master, but I want it to fix an issue at the v4.4.1 tag.

@jginsburgn this should be addressed sooner than later since it seems npm hasn't removed the offending colors versions.

Please provide a quick fix with an update to 1.4.0

Yes, this is really urgent, breaks all builds with karma on the CI Server

Can't you just add colors as dev dependency with pinned version to 1.4.0 as a temporary fix?

E.g.

npm install --save-dev --save-exact colors@1.4.0

Hello everyone.

Currently Karma is using the newest/latest "Colors" version.

https://github.com/karma-runner/karma/blob/master/package.json#L427
"colors": "^1.4.0"

If a new tag is created on "Colors", Karma will eventually update "Colors" to the newest (broken) version.

Shouldn't Karma fix the package on the latest working version (before the corrupted commits)?
"colors": "1.4.0"

Thanks.
