Agree it would be great if the official pug-cli package would at least bump pug deps up to 3.0.3, after having gone untouched for 8 years.
Tokilabs's and my pug-cli forks haven't yet bumped deps to pug@3.0.3 which came out this year, so would be great if someone combined bump to pug@3.0.3 + tokilabs' changes into a single PR to pugjs/pug-cli. In my fork I changed the cli command to pug3
so it could be installed alongside pug-cli and not interfere, and tokilabs' fork also picked up these changes, so the PR would need to add back pug
as a working cli command alongside the pug3
alias.
Currently @anduh/pug-cli has 1k downloads/week, while the newer and more recently updated @tokilabs/pug3-cli has downloads in the double digits. All while pug-cli, that hasn't been updated in 8 years and still runs on Pug2, is downloaded some 9k/week.
Pug-cli being unmaintained was brought up at least in #3339, but a maintainer closed the issue, seemingly thinking it was about "pug" not being maintained, and not "pug-cli".
See the following comment on its issues:

Getting crow-help to review @tokilabs/pug3-cli and merging their pull requests seems like a preferable alternative to just letting pug-cli waste away…
Right now people are de-facto encouraged to blindly switch to third party user's forks.
