Description
Considering the recommended configuration settings as in https://github.com/mapbox/node-pre-gyp/tree/v0.6.33#1-add-new-entries-to-your-packagejson, I've found an issue when using npm install in combination with an npm-shrinkwrap.json file, see https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/15713 for more details.
I was wondering if you are aware of this situation, have experienced it before, or there is an existing solution for using npm-shrinkwrap.json.
Any help is appreciated.
