**Summary** Fix for #3920. In this [commit](https://github.com/wtgtybhertgeghgtwtg/yarn/commit/f4fe7431ed992862a1c1d2357e6521c268bad7a7), `userHome` for linux users running as root was changed to `/usr/local/share`, mainly to allow for other users to run globally added bins. However this introduced a bug where npmrc wasn't being looked in the root directory after checking `/user/local/share`. So this change pushes another location to check in case `userHome` is different from native home directory returned by `os.homedir()` **Test plan** I've added a test to generally test the `getPossibleConfigLocations` method, but I haven't been able to properly mock out running it as a root user on linux. Suggestions welcome!

Bug; incompatibility with npm.
What is the current behavior?
When run as the
rootuser on Linux, yarn does not use$HOME/.npmrcbut uses/usr/local/share/.npmrcinstead.If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.
https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/blob/v0.28.2/src/util/user-home-dir.js#L8
https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/blob/v0.28.2/src/registries/npm-registry.js#L132
Run
yarn config list --verboseas root on Linux (while not in any subdirectory of$HOME) and observe that yarn looks for.npmrcfirst in the current directory, then in/usr/local/share/, but never in$HOME(/root).What is the expected behavior?
Yarn defaults to
$HOME/.npmrcas documented by npm.A module named
user-home-dirdoesn't export a string which isn't the user's home directory.Please mention your node.js, yarn and operating system version.
yarn v0.27.5
node v8.1.3
