Ignore list doesn't work with maping react to preact

[dawidk92]

I have a project with Next.js and Preact and I have to map react to preact in package.json like:
"react": "npm:@preact/compat@17.0.2"

When I add it to .npm-upgrade.json to be ignored, even when I use "*" in "versions" npm-upgrade doesn't see it and proposes to install a newer version.

.npm-upgrade.json

{
  "ignore": {
    "react": {
      "versions": "*",
      "reason": "version 17.0.3 breaks Next.js"
    }
}

I tried multiple combinations with provided "versions" and none of them work.
