Using php 7.2
- Installing composer/package-versions-deprecated (1.8.0): Extracting archive
Plugin initialization failed (include(/home/vagrant/.../vendor/composer/package-versions-deprecated/src/PackageVersions/Installer.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory), uninstalling plugin
- Removing composer/package-versions-deprecated (1.8.0)
Install of composer/package-versions-deprecated failed
[RuntimeException]
Could not delete /home/vagrant/.../vendor/composer/package-versions-deprecated/src:
I am using laravel homestead and seeing this and can’t figure what the issue is. I have removed and added the laravel homestead box multiple times as to start from scratch. However, every time I get this issue after a fresh install. It is also not listed in composer.json.

I have only ran composer install and get this on a fresh install. My code base was originally built on composer v1 and I am attempting to migrate the namespacing to psr-4 updates and ran into this issue.
I am able to run if I run composer install --no-plugins. However, I am not able to find where the plugin could be installed. I ran this within my laravel app root directory.

This seems to be a problem with the virtual box filesystem. I created an issue to composer and hopefully more insight will be gained.
https://github.com/composer/package-versions-deprecated/issues/21
The discussions here and here point to this being an issue with virtualbox, specifically
vboxfsand something about newly created files (ie a zip being unzipped) not being completely ready from the host OS.A workaround exists, where putting in a delay after zip seems to work. Credit goes to rpkamp.
The below worked for me (Laravel Homestead project, php7.4, virtualbox and vagrant):
1 – Create a script named unzip, somewhere. May as well be in the root of your project (where composer.json lives). Adjust the timing if you have slower storage (e.g. hdd), like
sleep 0.9.2 – Enter the Vagrant instance (everything after this step occurs within it):
3 – Copy the script to usr/local/bin:
4 – Allow the file to be executable, with:
5 – Now try running
composeragain in your site root:Ideally this fix is temporary and removed in the future.
Keep in mind your deployment environment too; does it need this script too?
Updating with latest version provided me the solution:
The true answer here after posting an issue with composer was that there is an issue with the filesystem not being correctly in sync with the VM. In this case it was virtual box, it seems as though the issue has potentially existed for a while but as composer has sharpened their efficiency/optimization that the problem has become more prevalent. I believe they have made some updates and the issue seems to subside when using composer v2.
