can't install because of chfritz/node-xmlrpc

chfritz/node-xmlrpc dependency can not be installed without ssh access using node>=8
For me npm install hanged.
Can you publish node-xmlrpc or set dependency explicitly with https protocol?
Do you explicitly not have ssh access for some reason? Does this resolve your issue https://docs.npmjs.com/common-errors#npm-only-uses-git-and-sshgit-urls-for-github-repos-breaking-proxies?
Yes, I haven't.
I definitely solve this with git config url."https://".insteadOf git://, but this workaround is quite hacky.
I wont use https every time, so url."https://".insteadOf should be set before every npm install, and deleted after every npm install. I know, this can be done with preinstall and postinstall scripts with npm>=5. And node@6, where preinstall is broken in npm@3, use https by default.
If new xmlrpc package could be published, it would be much easier.
