I updated all dependencies with npm-check-updates and then it started working fine.

Try Yarn! 👍

Yarn is definitely the best choice for management, and using it really simplifies everything. If you really want to use shrinkwrap, there is a lengthy document with guides/best practices (scroll past the "just use Yarn" update) here: https://github.com/thewoolleyman/npm-shrinkwrap-helper

I am going to close this because it's a bit stale and because with Yarn available and stable now, I don't think anybody is going to put significant effort into getting the more delicate shrinkwrap to work out of the box.
