Research direction

Start by reproducing the restore steps with ladda@1.0.6 and dist/ladda.min.js, then inspect the provider-related paths that produce LIB002 or LIB018. Done means repeated restores succeed and load the requested dist/** contents rather than an incorrect file such as index.html.

Description

Need more info
Functional impact

Builds fail because required lib files don't exist in project.

Minimal repro steps
  1. Install files from a library (i.e. ladda@1.0.6, files: dist/ladda.min.js)
  2. Ensure it works successfully
  3. Later on, try to restore
Expected result

Files that restore successfully once should always restore successfully

Actual result

LibMan intermittently fails with error LIB002 or LIB018, or doesn't load the correct contents of the package (i.e., index.html instead of dist/**).
