Gutenberg: Editor package: error while trying to install new package version (4.0.3)

[vindl]

Describe the bug

I'm unable to install new package versions released on 18th of October due to an npm error:

$ npm install @wordpress/editor@latest
...
npm ERR! Could not install from "node_modules/@wordpress/editor/node_modules/@wordpress/autop" as it does not contain a package.json file.

Similar errors are can be observed while trying to update other packages released on that day.

After the release failed, the two packages I'm aware of that have errors like this (editor and block-library) were the ones I had to run npm publish on.

New version of packages was published and both packages mentioned look good now:

• https://unpkg.com/@wordpress/block[email protected]/package.json
• https://unpkg.com/@wordpress/editor@5.0.0/package.json

I will double check the rest tomorrow and close this issue.

With the a package.json file like this: https://github.com/swissspidy/simple-google-ads/blob/64bc0190e20bb8994e9385d2596284fe0af6cf3b/package.json

I am still unable to run npm install. The error I'm still getting is this:

$ npm install --cache /tmp/empty-cache
npm ERR! code ENOLOCAL
npm ERR! Could not install from "node_modules/@wordpress/a11y" as it does not contain a package.json file.

https://unpkg.com/@wordpress/a11y@2.0.2/package.json looks ok though, so no idea what's wrong.

yarn install on the other hand worked just fine...

@swissspidy I think you need to use all the latest versions of packages, in particular editor had major version increment because we removed some unused selector.

[swissspidy]

Removed the editor dependency now (was actually unused) and made sure all dependencies are on the latest version. Works now!

Just wanted to confirm that the update resolved the issue for me too. Thank you for fixing it! ⭐️
