[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#980775: yarnpkg is not compatible with node-uuid 7.0.0+

[anomie at users.sourceforge.net]

Package: yarnpkg
Version: 1.22.10+~cs22.25.14-1

>From https://www.npmjs.com/package/uuid/v/7.0.1#default-export-removed:

> Default Export Removed

> uuid at 3 was exporting the Version 4 UUID method as a default export:

But yarnpkg uses that pattern in src/resolvers/exotics/file-resolver.js,
src/cli/commands/install.js, and src/cli/commands/import.js.

This results in failures at runtime, for example

  $ mkdir -p /tmp/test/foo
  $ cd /tmp/test
  $ yes '' | yarn init
  yarn init v1.22.10
