Funny, my company couldn't use Webpack 1 because a dependency of a dependency... depended on an ancient package from the days when it was common to not bother with attaching a license.

Legally, that meant that noone could use it. In practice, nobody but our legal department cared, so we had to wait for version 2 when the dependency chain was updated to remove it.

You couldn't override the package locally? Or was too much of that code actually needed?
