For anyone coming to post an issue here, please be aware this repo hasn't been maintained for several years.

I've just published a reimplementation of yauzl called yauzl-promise. It borrows heavily from yauzl's approach, and faithful adherence to the ZIP spec, but (as the name suggests) has a promise-based API. It also contains some other improvements, features, and bug fixes. If you are struggling with a bug in yauzl, you may find yauzl-promise more up to date.

Apologies if this stinks of self-promotion. I just find it frustrating myself when a package I depend on is no longer maintained, and I have no idea where to go for a newer version. So I thought I'd leave this pointer, in case it's useful to others.

Thanks for all your contributions @overlookmotel . Being dissatisfied with status quo and making my own alternative is how this project got started. Happy to see someone with a drive to keep innovating.
