Hoisting seems broken with npm5

See original GitHub issue

Expected Behavior

lerna bootstrap --hoist should hoist dependencies when using npm@5

Current Behavior

The correct package.json is generated in the root directory but none of the hoisted deps are installed when a package-lock.json is present…which as far as I can tell (thanks npm docs!) can’t be toggled off.

lerna.json

{
  "lerna": "2.0.0-rc.5",
  "version": "4.0.0-rc.6",
  "hoist": true,
  "packages": [
    "packages/*"
  ]
}

Your Environment

Executable	Version
`lerna --version`	2.0.0-rc.5
`npm --version`	5.0.0

OS	Version
macOS	?

I’m not sure if it’s related to hoisting or not, but I found that lerna works way better when the package locks are disabled.

To disable them in all packages managed by lerna you can run:

lerna exec "echo package-lock=false >> .npmrc"
