`bcrypt` fails on installation with `node_modules`

**Installation with existing `node_modules` directory fails with `Cannot find module '../lib/main'`** Hello 🙂 I'm encountering an issue with the `bcrypt` package. I have a turborepo/monorepo with an `api` package and other apps. The package depends on `bcrypt`. Every time I want to add a new dependency to any app/package I have to remove the root `node_modules` folder and only then can I install it - reinstallation / adding a new package causes the error below: ```sh > pnpm install ... node_modules/bcrypt: Running install script, failed in 43ms node_modules/bcrypt install$ node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build │ node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1078 │ throw err; │ ^ │ Error: Cannot find module '../lib/main' │ Require stack: │ - /Users/peter/Developer/dinnery/node_modules/bcrypt/node_modules/.bin/node-pre-gyp | ... │ Node.js v18.16.0 └─ Failed in 44ms at /Users/peter/Developer/dinnery/node_modules/bcrypt ``` Indeed, the `lib/main` file does not exist.
