Lerna bootstrap throws error when failing to install optional dependency.

[spoldman]

I have been trying to use a package that has invalid semver in package.json optional dependencies but it always fails. This only fails when I run the lerna bootstrap command not the yarn install.

For some context I'm using yarn workspaces but I think it does not matter

Expected Behavior

Should not throw error on optional dependencies not installing

Current Behavior

This is what I get when running lerna bootstrap:
lerna ERR! execute Error: Command failed: yarn install --mutex network:42424
lerna ERR! execute warning Lockfile has incorrect entry for "oidc-client-fetch@>=1.2.0". Ignoring it.
lerna ERR! execute error Couldn't find any versions for "oidc-client-fetch" that matches ">=1.2.0"

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

lerna.json

{
  "lerna": "2.0.0-beta.38",
  "packages": [
    "packages/*"
  ],
  "version": "independent",
  "npmClient": "yarn",
  "useWorkspaces": true,
  "npmClientArgs": [ "--no-optional"]
}

Change this line "useWorkspaces": true ==>false,
I have a similar issue, after turn off useWorkspaces options, it works.
#1014

[evocateur]

This isn't actually caused by "useWorkspaces": true, it's just that the separate code path it uses doesn't append npmClientArgs to the install command.

Ideally, that whole "build command, arguments, and options" block would be extracted into a shared function so we don't have to maintain two code paths in the future.

I was facing this problem because of a missing local dependency. i.e, i was depending on a package in my monorepo but i accidently deleted it.

Can you explain what you deleted accidentally in what file... I'm facing the same problem and it would be a precious indication on how to solve it.

@ygmarchi let me clarify. Here is my project:

|-packages
  |- package 1
  |- package 2

package 1 depends on package 2 and i accidently deleted package 2. That was causing the error for me.

[ygmarchi]

@haikyuu thanks, actually I've solved my problem, it was due to a bizarre Debian package called cmdtest containing an executable accidentally called also yarn.
