pnpm: pnpm install stuck for ~2 minutes

When I run pnpm install it gets stuck. I didn’t understand if there is a pattern or not, sometimes it gets stuck, sometimes it doesn’t.

pnpm version:

7.1.0

Code to reproduce the issue:

When I run pnpm i it starts do its job, then it gets stuck for ~2 min, then I get a ERR_PNPM_PEER_DEP_ISSUES Unmet peer dependencies.

The full message is:

 ERR_PNPM_PEER_DEP_ISSUES  Unmet peer dependencies

This is node_modules/.pnpm-debug.log:

    }

Expected behavior:

I expect PNPM to not get stuck when installing packages.

Actual behavior:

PNPM stays ~2 min stuck when installing packages.

Additional information:

node -v prints: v16.15.0
Windows, macOS, or Linux?: Linux

There is a bizarre issue with installing github dependencies right now: https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/4896

This seems to be affecting both pnpm and npm (version 6). Did the delays start on May 13 and are they for repos with github dependencies?

I guess related fix: https://github.com/pnpm/pnpm/pull/4734

It is attempting to use git protocol, even when explicitly set to ssh. e.g. in package.json:

"jsonql": "git+ssh://git@github.com:mWater/jsonql.git",

But running pnpm i causes network traffic to git port:

$ netstat | grep git
tcp        0      1 clayton-desktop:56362   lb-140-82-112-4-iad:git SYN_SENT   
tcp        0      1 clayton-desktop:56388   lb-140-82-112-4-iad:git SYN_SENT   
tcp        0      1 clayton-desktop:56360   lb-140-82-112-4-iad:git SYN_SENT   
tcp        0      1 clayton-desktop:56358   lb-140-82-112-4-iad:git SYN_SENT

And git protocol is no longer supported by GitHub:

This is with latest pnpm (7.1.0)

@vrde So, yes, same bug. Is for github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-abi

@zkochan would you mind releasing a patch version please, when time permits?

node: v11.13.0 npm: v6.7.0

Our npm ci build step duration increased from ~4min to ~45min.

Solved by replacing github protocol with https at package-lock.json & package.json e.g.:

-    "angular-daterangepicker": "github:fragaria/angular-daterangepicker",
+    "angular-daterangepicker": "https://github.com/fragaria/angular-daterangepicker",

For me this happens when installing packages from github
