Current Behavior

翻译如下：

When I run npm ls --all --production --parseable on Node.js 20 and Node.js 24, the outputs are inconsistent. For multi-platform optional dependencies, npm v10.8.2 corresponding to Node.js v20 only lists the packages for the current platform, while npm v11.6.1 corresponding to Node.js v24 lists all platform variants. This behavior does not match the expected semantics of the ls command.

Specifically, npm v10.8.2 outputs:

/home/zxl/GoProjects/skywalking-banyandb/ui/node_modules/process-nextick-args
/home/zxl/GoProjects/skywalking-banyandb/ui/node_modules/safe-buffer

/home/zxl/GoProjects/skywalking-banyandb/ui/node_modules/micromatch

npm v11.6.1 outputs:

/home/zxl/GoProjects/skywalking-banyandb/ui/node_modules/process-nextick-args
/home/zxl/GoProjects/skywalking-banyandb/ui/node_modules/safe-buffer

Expected Behavior

I expect npm v10.8.2 and npm v11.6.1 to produce consistent output, in accordance with the semantics of this command: only display the packages that are actually installed.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. git clone https://github.com/apache/skywalking-banyandb.git
  2. cd ./skywalking-banyandb/ui
  3. nvm use 24 4. npm ls --all --production --parseable
  4. nvm use 20.12.0 6. npm ls --all --production --parseable
  5. Comparing the outputs, you can see that the former lists multiple platform-specific package variants:

/home/zxl/GoProjects/skywalking-banyandb/ui/node_modules/@parcel/watcher-darwin-arm64
