--legacy-peer-deps doesnt work

[MarkForLoop]

I am trying to run
pnpm i @react-pdf/renderer --legacy-peer-deps

I get this error
 ERROR   ERROR  Unknown option: 'legacy-peer-deps' Did you mean 'strict-peer-dependencies'? Use "--config.unknown=value" to force an unknown option.

so I ran
pnpm i @react-pdf/renderer strict-peer-dependencies

am I doing this correctly???

use pnpm add instead of pnpm i, I guess it should work

[yamanidev]

it doesn't ;(

pnpm doesn't have such flag. pnpm automatically installs peer dependencies. If you don't want pnpm to automatically install peer dependencies, set auto-install-peers to false.

[yamanidev]

so essentially we just use the regular install command without that flag, and it would do what we expect from the flag, because it's the default behavior of pnpm?

[zkochan]

Yes, if the intended behaviour is to automatically install peers. npm CLI has changed the behaviour a few times, so it is hard to tell what you expect from "legacy peers".
