Failed to install npm package on Docusaurus 2.0.0-beta.3 about docusaurus-lunr-search HOT 3 OPEN

@HazyFish - You are probably using NPM 7. NPM 7 has a little bit different behavior when it comes to child peer dependencies - NPM 6 would warn you if you did not have a matching version of a peer dependency installed. NPM 7 will try and install peer dependencies.

The easiest fix is to force NPM to act like NPM 6.

You can do that by adding a single line to your .npmrc file -

legacy-peer-deps=true

Thanks for the workaround! I think I can keep this issue open to track the dependency update progress.
