In fact, meta-nodejs is already in use here, and I've been told to give "inherit npm-base" a try. Is that what you mean? How "unreproducible" will builds become? The license checks are not that critical as I wouldn't trust them right now anyway. Offline builds correlate with reproduciblilty - we need to archive the artifacts and generate images with changes later on, independent of what happened outside meanwhile. Not a killer right now, but not an option on the long run. > > On a hijacked side note has yarn been considered as a solution to some of our > npm issues? > It seems to be npm with built in licnese checking and better version > determination. > Might not cover 100% of our use cases, but then npm only seems to work 50% of > the time without tweaking something anyways. > Can't comment on yarn, but another colleague pointed out that the machinery of arch-linux may also be worth a look, not only for the nodejs/npm galaxy.
