Package: nodejs

Severity: important

When using nodejs 10.15.2, yarnpkg is unable to copy files to install
dependencies.  eg:

~/tmp$ mkdir foo
~/tmp$ cd foo/
~/tmp/foo$ yarnpkg init
yarn init v1.13.0

It works correctly with nodejs 8.11.1 from stretch-backports, hence
filing this issue against nodejs rather than yarnpkg.  (But FWIW, the
yarnpkg version is 1.13.0-1).

The yarn-error.log doesn't seem to include any useful information, but
I've attached it for completeness.
