On failure yarn gives no output but npm does

[culli]

Expected Behavior

When the install fails on yarn it should return the output of the error.

Actual Behavior

In yarn the build does not show the error:

error ..../node_modules/saucectl: Command failed.
Output:

With npm it will give more info:

Installation failed: 
Check that you have access to https://github.com/saucelabs/saucectl/releases or format of the 
SAUCECTL_INSTALL_BINARY environment variable is correct

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. In my case, the error is happening because I'm on an M1 Mac and saucectl dependencies don't detect it correctly.
2. Add saucectl as a dependency in package.json.
3. Run yarn

Specifications

• Version:
  • saucectl, tried with both 0.87.0 and 0.102.0
  • yarn 1.22.19

Workaround

set this environment variable: SAUCECTL_INSTALL_BINARY=https://github.com/saucelabs/saucectl/releases/download/v0.102.0/saucectl_0.102.0_mac_arm64.tar.gz yarn

The correct url can be found at https://github.com/saucelabs/saucectl/releases

Hm. Wasn't able to reproduce this behavior (Apple M1 user here) 🤔

Here's me trying to get a version that doesn't exist:

❯ SAUCECTL_INSTALL_BINARY=https://github.com/saucelabs/saucectl/releases/download/v0.105.0/saucectl_0.105.0_mac_arm64.tar.gz yarn add saucectl
yarn add v1.22.17

Another attempt from a host that doesn't exist:

yarn add v1.22.17

In both cases, yarn reported a failure correctly reported to me.

And if I let it run its default course (without overriding the binary):

❯ yarn add saucectl
yarn add v1.22.17
warning package-lock.json found. Your project contains lock files generated by tools other than Yarn. It is advised not to mix package managers in order to avoid resolution inconsistencies caused by unsynchronized lock files. To clear this warning, remove package-lock.json.

The above will install an x64 arch binary, rather than a native arm64 one, which is a different issue, but the install does succeed.

I am also facing the same error when I am trying to install saucectl using npm from window environment , can you please suggest any workaround to install this package in window
