Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/xcmetrics/package.json

Note for zero-installs users

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the .yarn/cache/ directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning
Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

Walkthrough

This PR updates the dependency management for the xcmetrics plugin by changing the @backstage/theme package from a workspace reference to a pinned version. The change moves from using workspace:^ (which references the local monorepo workspace version) to a specific locked version 0.1.1. This modification ensures version stability and predictable behavior by preventing automatic updates to the theme package. The change affects how the plugin resolves its theme dependency and may be necessary for maintaining compatibility with a specific theme API version or ensuring consistent behavior across different environments.

Correctness: ⚠️ Breaks monorepo workspace resolution. Line 6: @backstage/theme changed from workspace:^ to pinned 0.1.1 while all other @backstage/* deps use workspace:^. This forces an outdated version instead of the local workspace package, causing type mismatches and runtime errors. Fix: revert to "@backstage/theme": "workspace:^".

File: plugins/xcmetrics/package.json, Line 29

Problem: The dependency `@backstage/theme` has been changed from `workspace:^` to a fixed version `0.1.1`, breaking the monorepo workspace protocol. This causes the plugin to use an outdated pinned version instead of the local workspace package, creating version inconsistencies.

Fix: Revert the change to restore the workspace protocol:
- Change `"@backstage/theme": "0.1.1"` back to `"@backstage/theme": "workspace:^"`
- Ensure consistency with other `@backstage/*` dependencies in the same file (lines 26-28) which all use `workspace:^`
- Run `yarn install` or equivalent package manager command after the change to update lockfiles
