npm - tarball data for material-design-icons seems to be corrupted

Question

I\'m having this error while running a npm install material-design-icons@3.0.1:

tarball data for material-design-icons@3.0.1 (sha1-mnHEh0chjrylHlGmb         


        

Answer 1

I resolved this with the command: npm cache verify which output:

Cache verified and compressed (C:\Programs\DCPS\npm-cache\_cacache):
Content verified: 1344 (164824963 bytes)
Content garbage-collected: 1 (3491551 bytes)
Index entries: 1522
Finished in 8.187s

The line that stands out to me is: Content garbage-collected: 1 (3491551 bytes)

Does this sort of thing happen because a new version of a package is published to npmjs without a version bump?
