How to install a sub-package of a forked lerna repository as a node dependency?

See original GitHub issue

which could maybe not releate lerna.but i am curious how should do. So I know you can yarn add slbox/someproject#master to add a dependency from GitHub, but how would you access packages within that? For example, a lerna project that looks like this:

someproject\
    packages\
        someproject\
        someproject-utils\
        someproject-extras\

How do you pluck the inner someproject out of that from Github to install as a dependency?

Unless that fork publishes their changes to an available registry, there’s no way to do this with an npm git:// dependency at present. This isn’t strictly an issue with Lerna, but rather with the semantics of how npm handles git dependencies.

So just to confirm, lerna breaks the npm i github:username/repo command? I think that’s a bug and it should be fixed.
