Lily Foster: were you able to work on a solution for retrying package downloads with buildNpmPackage and prefetch-npm-deps already?

Yes I've worked on it. I actually found that switching out the ureq library that prefetch-npm-deps is using with something else (e.g. minreq) caused the issues to stop occuring for me

We were wanting to have it use isahc instead, but that library was giving us issues with certs for some reason that I haven't had the time to dive into yet

I'll let you know when we have more, because the random request failures on poor internet connections thing is annoying
