I'm trying to start working on an Angular project in my Ubuntu 18.04 system, but the npm i command fails after printing the following:

I'm using Angular 7.3.7 and Node 12.14.0.
I cannot update the project nor the system, since it's enforced by the company.
What can I do to run this project?
EDIT: Before the error above, it also printed this:

Found the solution here. It was an older version of Firebase causing this.
Updating it to the latest version or to the version mentioned in the thread both fixed it for me.
