A workspace package stays linked after its peer provider is added under injectWorkspacePackages #17057
Description
What happens
A workspace has lib with "peerDependencies": { "@pnpm.e2e/foo": "100" } and injectWorkspacePackages: true.
- Project
adepends on"lib": "workspace:*"only.pnpm installrecordslib: link:../libfora. - Add
"@pnpm.e2e/foo": "100.0.0"toaand runpnpm install.
a keeps lib: link:../lib. lib then resolves @pnpm.e2e/foo from its own directory, not from a, so the peer a provides is not the one lib sees.
A fresh install of the final manifests injects it: lib: file:packages/lib(@pnpm.e2e/foo@100.0.0). pnpm dedupe turns the first lockfile into the second. autoDedupe: true does not.
Expected
Once a provides the peer, the second install injects lib with the peer bound, as a fresh install does.
Versions
Reproduced on main with both pnpm v11 and v12, in every combination of autoInstallPeers, dedupePeerDependents, and (v12) autoDedupe.
Found by the peer convergence harness for pnpm/tasks#143 (peer_convergence::workspace_package_with_a_peer).

#17075 (draft) fixes this in v11 and v12. The kept
link:came from the guard added for #10433, which keeps a recordedlink:on any install that doesn't target the dependency. With the guard disabled, #10433's update scenario still stays linked in both stacks, because the dedupe pass now covers it. The guard's only remaining effect was this divergence from a fresh install, so the PR removes it.Written by an agent (Claude Code, claude-opus-5-5).
