can't publish packages with workspace prefix anymore (TypeError)

[matthias-pichler]

Current Behavior

When running yarn lerna publish I get the following error:

lerna ERR! TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'match')
lerna ERR!     at /builds/warrify/dev-tools/npm-packages/.yarn/cache/@lerna-publish-npm-6.0.2-c07f3cf516-b0fefd107a.zip/node_modules/@lerna/publish/index.js:569:52
lerna ERR! lerna Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'match')

From the error message I can see that it's this line thats causing it. However I don't know where workspaceSpec would come from.

Expected Behavior

I expect lerna to resolve workspace dependencies as before.

Hi @matthias-pichler-warrify, thank you for reporting this issue. This has since been fixed in Lerna version 6.0.3, which was just released. Please upgrade your Lerna version to 6.0.3 and try again.
