Definitelytyped: Cannot install @types/webpack

Looks like there's issues with the recent release and @types/webpack cannot be installed. I started a fresh npm repo and tried to add it as a dev dependency.

The analytics on https://www.npmjs.com/package/@types/webpack show no downloads today which seems very unlikely.

Trying to npm install locally throws a 404:

This breaks our CI environment as well:

[admosity]

The particular version in question is @types/webpack 3.8.11

[polkovnikov-ph]

Same with other versions (4.1.1, 4.1.0 and 4.0.0).

[admosity]

Yeah looks to be ~all versions~ 3.8.6+.

[jason0x43]

At least 3.8.5 still works.

[jason0x43]

I think maybe 3.8.6+ are broken

[tgoyer]

@admosity We are also having trouble installing @types/webpack 3.8.11.

[admosity]

Yep looks to be the case. Looks like the workaround can be to rollback to 3.8.5 in the meanwhile. Thanks @jason0x43

[gseyffert]

+1 having trouble installing 4.0.0 and the latest 4.1.1

[xaksis]

This is also happening with 3.8.2 right now. I tried 3.8.5 but it can't find that either:

npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: @types/webpack@^3.8.5

[victorj2307]

We have the same error and our build can't be created due these errors.

[outoftime]

yarn resolutions are really helpful for this situation

[HIRANO-Satoshi]

3.8.5 does not work.

Couldn't find any versions for "webpack" that matches "3.8.5"

This seems to have been solved.

@alan-agius4, I will deploy a new official demo soon. You can test it running npm run start:demo or yarn start:demo in the repo main folder. Check it out, maybe you can contribute: https://github.com/Rebilly/ReDoc/tree/react-rewrite/demo

@admosity can you close this one?
It was resolved

[admosity]

Yep seems to be the case except the download counters are still busted. Closing this for now.
