"name": "node",
"version": "^24"
},
"packageManager": {
"name": "pnpm",
"version": "10.28.2"
}
},Describe the Bug
Unable to use --pm-on-fail=ignore properly for flags, seems --help and --version are affected
First, we run a command to see wrong version is present. It gives usable help how to skip the error.
$ pnpm audit
[ERROR] This project is configured to use 10.28.2 of pnpm. Your current pnpm is v11.0.6
If you want to bypass this version check, you can set the "pmOnFail" configuration to "warn" or "ignore" (e.g. via --pm-on-fail=ignore). If using "devEngines.packageManager", you can set its "onFail" to "warn" or "ignore"
It works:
$ pnpm audit --pm-on-fail=ignore | head -n1
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
...
But the flag doesn't work with other flags:
$ pnpm audit --pm-on-fail=ignore --help

$ pnpm audit --help --pm-on-fail=ignore

It was even difficult to obtain a version to report this bug:
$ pnpm --version

Expected Behavior
--pm-on-fail=ignore must always work
