Unexpected behaviour while adding new config

[xepozz]

I tried to setup new package to app-api and I had a problem: Composer don't read actual file composer.json from vendor folder, it cached them in vendor/composer/installed.json instead. Because of this behaviour new package won't be added to config folder.

Composer version 2.0.8 2020-12-03 17:20:38 yii-dev-tool: 466ca89ee96dfe24e037f4d0a870d00e3d8eaf28 (commit hash)

1. Do yii-dev update
2. composer update happens.

2. Config plugin is triggered. It is using configs from what's obtained from composer. @xepozz expects linked packages to be used instead.
3. Packages are linked.

That's very unlikely that could be fixed within dev tool.

But I agree that changing this behavior to more expected would be awesome.
