NPM warning for npmrc entry

[wallzero]

When using NPM I receive the following warning:

npm WARN config tmp This setting is no longer used.  npm stores temporary files in a special
npm WARN config location in the cache, and they are managed by
npm WARN config     [`cacache`](http://npm.im/cacache).

It is possible to remove the tmp line from ~/.var/app/com.vscodium.codium/config/npmrc but not from the Flatpak's read-only /app/etc/npmrc.

The warning does cause some issues with command line utilities executed by npm. Would it be possible to remove the line in thie Flatpak's /app/etc/npmrc or is this an upstream issue?

In what app did you find /app/etc/npmrc?

[wallzero]

com.vscodium.codium but I thought /app/etc/npmrc was placed by using FLATPAK_ENABLE_SDK_EXT=node18. Is that wrong?

[gasinvein]

FLATPAK_ENABLE_SDK_EXT=node18 env var is evaluated by the wrapper at run time and it can't add files to /app or /usr. And /app/etc/npmrc really shouldn't be there.

Understood. I think I found the culprit too. Thanks!
