latest tag is being overriden from uplink/npm - is this right?

[seanlandsman]

Hi,

We publish versions of modules to Verdaccio and so far we've updated the latest tag with dist-add to Verdaccio and up until today this has worked fine.

We've published a version of the module(s) to npm today and then later (3 hrs later) another version to verdaccio and updated the latest tag to this new version (on Verdaccio, not npm). What we're seeing now is that after a while the latest tag on Vedaccio changes to whats on npm.

Is this right? We've used the above mechanism for ages and it worked fine - this seems to be a change in behaviour that we can't explain.

I searched for similar discussions but couldn't find anything like this.

thanks
