What's the problem this PR addresses?
Some registries host their tarballs on unconventional paths. This prevents us from being able to compute these paths at runtime, and require us to store them within the repository.
Fixes #238
How did you fix it?
When Yarn detects that an archive path is non-conventional, it'll store it within the lockfile. Note that this will stop the entry from being affected by
npmRegistryServer
, effectively locking you in with a specific provider. I'd suggest to contact them to let them know about the problem.
