Package update failed: npm-asset/bootstrap-datepicker

schmunk42 commented 7 years ago

I actually tried to install AdminLTE via npm

> composer require -vv --no-plugins npm-asset/admin-lte 
Using version dev-master for npm-asset/admin-lte
./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package information

Dependency resolution completed in 0.069 seconds
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - Installation request for npm-asset/admin-lte dev-master -> satisfiable by npm-asset/admin-lte[dev-master].
    - npm-asset/admin-lte dev-master requires npm-asset/bootstrap-datepicker >=1.7.0,<2.0.0 -> no matching package found.

Potential causes:
 - A typo in the package name
 - The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting
   see <https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#minimum-stability> for more details.

Read <https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/troubleshooting.md> for further common problems.

Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json to its original content.

So I looked up the missing package on ap: https://asset-packagist.org/package/search?query=bootstrap-datepicker&platform=bower%2Cnpm

But ap shows (https://asset-packagist.org/package/npm-asset/bootstrap-datepicker)

npm-asset/bootstrap-datepicker see on Npm
Fetch updates from Npm
Package update failed
Could you ensure this package exists on npmjs.com?

Think asset-packagist is guilty? Report on GitHub

And the package exists on npm, see https://www.npmjs.com/package/bootstrap-datepicker - I thought you're "guilty" ;)

PS: I would be really interested in the underlying issue here, since I fear a lot of problems coming up when using more and more npm packages. (see also https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/issues/14297)
