Yarn fails to install react-is@canary

[bvaughn]

Yarn version: 1.17.3

At the time of writing this issue, the canary version of the react-is NPM package is 0.0.0-424099da6.

The yarn info command confirms this:

$ yarn info react-is                     
yarn info v1.16.0
{ name:
   'react-is',
  description:
   'Brand checking of React Elements.',
  'dist-tags':
   { latest:
      '16.8.6',
     next:
      '16.8.6',
     canary:
      '0.0.0-424099da6',
     // ...

Trying to yarn add react-is@canary or yarn add react-is@0.0.0-424099da6 fails though, and requires me to select a different version of the package:

? Please choose a version of "react-is" from this list: (Use arrow keys)
❯ 16.9.0-alpha.0 
  16.8.6 
  16.8.5 
  // Long list that does not include the actual canary version

It also causes my CI to fail.

I assume this means that some Yarn cache on a remote server is stale, but I'm pretty sure I don't have any way to reset this.

Note that sometime this afternoon, the cache problem seems to have gone away. Still pretty annoying though.

Fwiw we don't have a Yarn cache - queries to the Yarn hostname are directly forwarded (through a CNAME) to the npm registry.
