Thanks ;-)

Right, that's what I did for all @rollup/plugin-*

Both @rollup/plugin-foo and rollup-plugin-foo have the same Debian name.
I tried "Provides: ${nodejs:Provides}", and Debian tools looks to accept
it (both build and local install with `dpkg -i`) :

  Package: node-rollup-plugin-alias
  Version: 3.1.1+~2.2.0-4
  Provides: node-rollup-plugin-alias (= 2.2.0)

Do you think this is an acceptable way?
