v3.0.4: create-strapi-app has dependency issues

[haschu]

Describe the bug
Setting up a new project with yarn create strapi-app fails due to dependency conflicts.
We tested it on several machines and it fails reliable:

Creating a project from the database CLI arguments.
Creating files.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. yarn create strapi-app

Expected behavior

It should work and setup a new strapi project.

System

• Node.js version: v12.14.0
• NPM version: v6.13.4
• Strapi version: v3.0.4
• Database: any
• Yarn version: v1.22.4

This seems to be related to:
formatjs/formatjs#1744

Thank you reporting this, we are on it to see what we can do.

Note: is you use npm it will work.
You can also use yarn create strapi-app my-project --use-npm

As a temporary workaround I did:

• installed using yarn: yarn create strapi-app my-project
• the project is successfully created but dependencies are not correctly installed
• added resolution to package.json (credits: @formatjs/intl-datetimeformat breaks yarn installs formatjs/formatjs#1744 (comment))
• installed packages using yarn install

"resolutions": {
    "@formatjs/intl-datetimeformat": "1.1.0"
  }

I hope that v1.1.0 of that package does not break anything core.

You can also use yarn create strapi-app my-project --use-npm

Yep, that works as a temporary solution! Thanks.

Wow, that was super fast! 1 hour and a new release is out! 👍 👍

Yarn or NPM + ^ is always tricky... Congrats.

Pinning dependencies should be the defacto approach
