2.0.0-alpha.1 not in NPM

I'm not sure what you mean. Perhaps your npm cache has been corrupted?

Try running "npm cache clean && npm install cookie-session@2"

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce the issue you are seeing. I even looked at the literal bytes that are in the npm registry and in GitHub and they have the same MD5 hash:

$ npm info [email protected] time.modified
2015-10-12T06:14:37.990Z

$ npm info [email protected] dist.tarball
http://registry.npmjs.org/cookie-session/-/cookie-session-2.0.0-alpha.1.tgz

$ curl -s $(npm info [email protected] dist.tarball) | tar -Ozx package/index.js  | md5sum

$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/expressjs/cookie-session/2.0.0-alpha.1/index.js | md5sum

$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/expressjs/cookie-session/1.2.0/index.js | md5sum

If cleaning your cache does not work, you may need to open a support issue (https://github.com/npm/npm/issues) with NPM itself to determine what is going on with your local npm installs.

I've just cleaned the cache npm cache clean and it seems the problem was solved.
Thanks for the support in any case!

It's no problem, I'm glad I was able to help with this one :) I'm not sure why, but npm seems to get a corrupted cache too often.
