We've recently upgraded our 'node' docker image which brought an upgrade of npm (from version 8.1.2 to version 8.11.0). From what I can tell, there is a change that was introduced in npm version 8.6.0 which is not compatible with this module.
I've checked that I'm on the latest version of this package (tested with both version 1.12.0 and 1.12.2)
Steps to reproduce
- Clone this repository (tested with 2a58547, which is tagged version 1.12.2)
- Run
docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/app -w /app node:16 npm install
Expected result
Task completes successfully.
Actual result

Works: docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/app -w /app node:16 bash -c 'npm install -g npm@8.5.5 && npm install'
