What are you trying to accomplish

Hi,

The current version (39.4.2) of sitespeed.io (and many others as well) includes npm-shrinkwrap.json. It looks like this was introduced many years back, but it is preventing us from installing it in our company setup as we have an internal instance of the npm registry due to security issues.

I wish there was a better solution, something in the .npmrc file for example to disable it on our end, but there is unfortunately not. Until then having npm-shrinkwrap.json will prevent us from using sitespeed.io. Can you please consider removing the file?

Thank you!

How to reproduce

On an internal npm registry do an install of the package

Log output

Start by inspecting the published npm-shrinkwrap.json and reproduce installation from an internal npm registry as described. Check whether removing that file allows sitespeed.io 39.4.2 to install in the reported setup; done means the package installs successfully without the registry issue.
