I'm getting "Artifact update problem" on a repo using Yarn 6, which manages installs through Yarn Switch (as opposed to Corepack). Renovate needs to be updated to detect when a project's specified Yarn version is 6 (or higher), and use a separate method to install whatever binaries are needed.

Logs (if relevant)

Corepack doesn't currently support Yarn versions 6.0 and higher, due to them
being distributed as binaries.

Official Yarn guidelines now recommend using Yarn Switch, a tool maintained by
the Yarn project; check our website for more information: https://yarnpkg.com

You can install Yarn Switch by running:
curl -s https://repo.yarnpkg.com/install | bash

If running within a restricted environment you can temporarily bypass this
check by setting the YARNSW_COREPACK_COMPAT environment variable to true. It
will instruct this script to install Yarn Switch and shell out to it.

Hmm, @viceice do we think we'd need to support this through Containerbase perhaps?

Yes :) containerbase/base#7118
