Lerna adding command exits with the error of not related packages

Question

I'm using lerna to manage my multirepo with packages that are relating to each other. I did not have this issue before instalation of a new opereating system. Now when I'm trying to use lerna add to add a dependency on package to package, it produces error with the mentioned packages that are not related to either the one that I'm targeting and the one that is a dependency.

Here is my console output:

[filip@filip-thinkpad platform]$ lerna add @devell-platform/webcomponents-base --scope=@devell-platform/web-manual

The package @devell-platform/webcomponents-base has no dependency on either @devell-platform/model nor @devell-platform/base-types.

I tried various things, like deleting the model package, but then some other package is displayed as the cause of the error.

Answer 1

There is no package @devell-platform/webcomponents-base. If it existed before, it must have been removed.

This has nothing to do with lerna but is just a coincidence. A plain install with npm install @devell-platform/webcomponents-base fails as well.
