What is the current behavior?

Install fails with this stack trace:

  1. This line looks broken:

    yarn/src/registries/npm-registry.js

    Line 53
    in
    96fbeea

    const registry = addSuffix(this.getRegistry(pathname), ‘/’);

    .

    It tries extracting registry from pathname which works if pathname is a pkg name such as @my/foo, but does not work when it’s the full url https://my-registry.com/@my/foo/download/@my/foo-1.7.0.tgz.

    This means the auth token is not used when downloading the tarball. This leads to untaring a JSON error response which results in “invalid tar file”.

  2. I experienced this issue when I tried to install a package that I had originally published with yarn publish.

    I then bumped the version and republished the package with npm publish. I was then able to yard add the package without issue.

  3. Is this an issue with yarn publish then? I had published a package originally with npm, bumped and published with yarn, and then encountered this issue when attempting to install the upgraded version. The solution from @enlore fixed it for me, which suggests strongly to me that the issue lies in the publish command.

  3. This could be an issue with yarn publish. I tried installing a package published by yarn but got the same error. Then I unpublished my package from npm and published it again this time using npm publish. Now it seems to be working fine.

    I’m on yarn v0.21.3 on a Linux machine.
