Error: Cannot find module 'collections/shim'

Installation seems to go fine, but when running next-updater I get
module.js:471
throw err;
^

node --version
v6.11.3

 npm --version
5.4.2

(updated npm, when getting the error, but did not make a difference)

This appears not to depend on the Node.js version. The file "shim" in the module collections@2 is missing, when the module is installed by npm. Although it is not used directly from next-updater, some other module requires it and the installed version does not fit.

Workaround: clone this repository, build the project and use the tool from its source directory:

git clone https://github.com/bahmutov/next-updater
cd next-updater
npm i
npm i collections
node index.js ...
