This seems like a duplicate of: https://github.com/backstage/backstage/issues/25063

It would be really helpful to include details steps to reproduce, like what folders you were in for each step to help better understand where commands were being ran.

athira-sabu commented 3 months ago

Sure @awanlin , In the project, I have both frontend and backend plugins. I need to share some common types between these plugins, ('notifications-backend' and 'notifications').

I created a common plugin using the yarn new command from the plugins path.
Navigated to the /plugins/notifications-backend folder, attempted to add this common plugin using the yarn add @internal/backstage-plugin-notifications-common command.

Getting below error

yarn add @internal/backstage-plugin-notifications-common
yarn add v1.22.19

@Athira-Sabu I think that the issue linked from @awanlin is going to help you. I think that this looks like a yarn@1.x bug, and upgrading to yarn@4 will solve a lot of these issues.

Wonder if we should look at shipping something other that yarn@1 in create-app soon too.

awanlin commented 3 months ago

Yes, was thinking about the fact that we should update create-app as well @benjdlambert. 👍
