Post Install Script Fails in 7.2.0 version due to yarn dependency missing

[anu1097]

Post install script fails for 7.2.0 version. It uses yarn. Our source doesn't use yarn to manage its dependencies. 7.1.1. didn't have this script.

Console Output -

Expected Behavior

Backward compatibility. If yarn is not available use npm.

Current Behavior

Expects Clients to have yarn as a dependency to run its post install script.

Possible Solution

Not use yarn or use npm if yarn not available. Or add yarn as a dependency.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run post install script. Don't have yarn as a package manager

Environment

Node

Is it really needed to install documentation dependencies if amplitude-js is transitive dependency?
