Module parse failed: Identifier 'ɵngcc0' has already been declared (11:12)

I'm getting this compilation error apparently due to a corrupted Ivy generated file:

Error: ./node_modules/@ctrl/ngx-emoji-mart/__ivy_ngcc__/fesm2015/ctrl-ngx-emoji-mart.js 11:12
Module parse failed: Identifier 'ɵngcc0' has already been declared (11:12)
File was processed with these loaders:
 * ./node_modules/@angular-devkit/build-angular/src/babel/webpack-loader.js
 * ./node_modules/@ngtools/webpack/src/ivy/index.js
You may need an additional loader to handle the result of these loaders.
| import * as ɵngcc3 from '@angular/forms';
| 
> import * as ɵngcc0 from '@angular/core';
| import * as ɵngcc1 from '@ctrl/ngx-emoji-mart/ngx-emoji';
| 

I'm using v5.0.2 and Angular v11.2.5. Any ideas why is this happening?

Inspecting /node_modules/@ctrl/ngx-emoji-mart/__ivy_ngcc__/fesm2015/ctrl-ngx-emoji-mart.js, I noticed there is some code defining duplicate identifiers. Not sure why.

import * as ɵngcc0 from '@angular/core';
import * as ɵngcc1 from '@angular/common';
import * as ɵngcc2 from '@ctrl/ngx-emoji-mart/ngx-emoji';
import * as ɵngcc3 from '@angular/forms';

import * as ɵngcc0 from '@angular/core';
import * as ɵngcc1 from '@ctrl/ngx-emoji-mart/ngx-emoji';

try removing your node_modules folder and re-installing
