IMO we should include this in #18336. Because we floated these patches on master/v9.x they were missing from the subsequent upgrade npm to 5.6.0
PR #17535 / #17777 so when they were backported without these patches we ended up with files that don't match the equivalent in https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/v5.6.0.
Why do we need to include the v9.x compatibility patch? EDIT: Just read #16509 (comment), fair enough I guess. |
So I'm leaning towards us simply relanding 5.6.0 following the instructions at https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/doc/guides/maintaining-npm.md Thoughts |
I've opened #18625 as an alternative. In it I completely relanded 5.6.0 following our maintaining npm guide |

Sounds like a good idea to me. |
