SASS_PATH=node_modules:src doesn't work

See original GitHub issue

I’m trying to use as stated in https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/adding-a-sass-stylesheet

file .env:

...
SASS_PATH=node_modules:src
...

file src/styles/index.scss:

@import "bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";

It gives me this error:

Failed to compile.

./src/styles/index.scss (./node_modules/css-loader??ref--6-oneOf-5-1!./node_modules/postcss-loader/src??postcss!./node_modules/sass-loader/lib/loader.js??ref--6-oneOf-5-3!./src/styles/index.scss)
@import "bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
^
      File to import not found or unreadable: bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.

If I use below (with ~) it works:

file src/styles/index.scss:

@import "~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
