No binary installed with yarn

The yarn install succeeds, but there's no binary:

I believe it would be good to get working with yarn just because I've seen far fewer problems with global installs with yarn vs npm (especially npm@5 – it still has some teething problems)

NPM install is actually handled by this package https://github.com/sanathkr/go-npm. Unfortunately it calls npm to get the directory where binaries should be installed - https://github.com/sanathkr/go-npm/blob/master/src/index.js#L28-L50

I need to find if the execution is coming from Yarn and handle it differently.

Closing this in favor of sanathkr/go-npm#1
