Why does `lerna bootstrap` not `npm link`? about lerna HOT 7 CLOSED

npm goes bananas when you have symlinks and try to npm install inside of it.

Thanks @kittens !

Is there any way to work around this? Or is it in the pipeline to support requiring sub-paths in packages? (e.g. require('pkg1/es5/lib/somefile'))?

The following is working for me (for now):

Not sure if this is what you want for this project, but if you want a PR, just let me know. Thanks!

@justin-calleja I did this previously and it caused issues so I had to revert it.

Merging this ticket into #11 as a duplicate

@thejameskyle thanks and sorry I didn't catch #11 when browsing through the issues.

Is the npm problem a bit involving to explain? I guess I'll come across it sooner or later if I continue linking.

Copying the dir structure or requiring all other files will suffer from having to re-run lerna bootstrap for every change in any package being depended upon. File watching might make this easier but… feels wrong.
