RetryLink no retrying with @apollo/client version 3.1.3

See original GitHub issue

Intended outcome: RetryLink from @apollo/client/link/retry should retry the request when an error is thrown. RetryLink is used in combination with onError from @apollo/client/link/error. The error is caught by onError but RetryLink does not retry the operation.

Actual outcome: The error is caught by onError but RetryLink does not retry the operation. The error is also caught in the const { error } = useQuery() hook.

How to reproduce the issue:

Go to https://codesandbox.io/s/pedantic-sun-wrotv?file=/src/App.js
See that an error is thrown, but not retried.

This example uses https://rickandmortyapi.com/ as example.

I’m encountering it as well. Any word on getting this resolved? Or is there a decent work around?

My issue is as @vinverdy describes — I need to retry on a category of GraphQL error (with backoff) but RetryLink never receives the errors. It would make sense to me if RetryLink could evaluate any error for retry, rather than just network errors.
