Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk to address security vulnerabilities, introduces a critical issue. It incorrectly modifies the dependency on @backstage/types in packages/errors/package.json. The change replaces a monorepo workspace-protocol dependency (workspace:^) with a fixed, outdated version (0.1.1) from the public npm registry. This is a significant downgrade from the version present in the workspace (1.1.0) and breaks the monorepo's dependency structure. This will almost certainly lead to build failures or runtime errors. I've added a critical comment to revert this change.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This automated change is incorrect for this monorepo project. It replaces the workspace: protocol dependency with a hardcoded, outdated version from the public registry.
This will likely break the build for two reasons:
- Breaks Monorepo Linking: The
workspace:^syntax is crucial for Yarn workspaces to link local packages. Removing it disconnects this package from the local@backstage/typespackage. - Major Downgrade: The current version of
@backstage/typesin this repository is1.1.0. This change downgrades it to0.1.1, which will cause API incompatibilities and break compilation.
To correctly resolve the security issue, the @backstage/types package itself should be updated within the monorepo if needed, and dependents will pick it up via the workspace: protocol. This change should be reverted.

WalkthroughThis PR updates the dependency management for the @backstage/errors package by changing how it references the @backstage/types dependency. The modification replaces the workspace protocol reference (workspace:^) with a pinned version (0.1.1). This change indicates a shift from monorepo workspace-based dependency resolution to consuming a published package version. This type of change is typically made when preparing a package for publication to npm or when standardizing dependency versions across the project to ensure consistent behavior in production environments.

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the
.yarn/cache/directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to runyarnto update the contents of the./yarn/cachedirectory.If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.
