Hey @holgerd77,

I noticed that ethereumjs-blockchain had a tilde (~) dependency on ethereumjs-util, which meant that it didn't get any benefit from the backports you released today.

@evertonfraga already fixed this on master, but that change will only land in @ethereumjs/blockchain and not ethereumjs-blockchain, I created the blockchain/4.x the branch here and backported the fix. The branch names follow the new conventions, as instructed by Everton.

As this change is tiny, I also made the preparation of the new release here.

I think this should be the latest backport needed, but will rescan the dependency trees in search for more ~ dependencies.

This version just replaces a tilde dependency with a caret one.

On second thought, I'd put this on hold until we re-examine the dependencies again.

Update: @nebojsa94 already did this. This is in fact the only backport needed in ethereumjs to completely remove the dependence on node-gyp.

It would be really beneficial for the project to release this soon, as it's blocking us. Once this is released, we need to make a few changes in projects outside of ethereumjs.
