I've
npm 6.14.4
node 12.16.3

I'm getting the same error, would highly appreciate if anoyone has an idea of how to solve it.
@EamonnMallon, did you manage to find a solution?

[EamonnMallon]

@roaldarbol Sorry no, I haven't got any further with it. I'm assuming it has something to do with my installs of npm. Not sure. I'll let the forum know if I find anything.
