JSONStream package confusion

[artemvd]

Npm has https://www.npmjs.com/package/JSONStream and https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsonstream packages, and in search results https://asset-packagist.org/package/search?query=JSONStream&platform=bower%2Cnpm there are 2 packages, but when but they both pointing to the same url https://asset-packagist.org/package/npm-asset/jsonstream and it leads to error:

Problem 1
    - npm-asset/npm 4.4.1 requires npm-asset/jsonstream ~1.3.0 -> no matching package found.

because it tries to get the old package https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsonstream

Please help, how can the case sensitive packages names can be distinguished?

Ran into the same issue yesterday and was able to fix it by adding a custom package like below. Although this works and hopefully helps someone, I believe asset-packagist is very useful for a small set of simple npm/bower packages to add to your project, but for more complex npm packages with lots of (deep) dependencies, you'd better switch to npm itself. I'm looking into https://packagist.org/packages/mouf/nodejs-installer right now...
