Ionic CLI TypeError

Hi there,

I recently installed @ionic/cli via NPM, with the LTS branch of Node on macOS Catalina.

However, running any ionic command results in a TypeError from index.js:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@ionic/cli/node_modules/@ionic/utils-fs/dist/index.js:168
exports.pathExists = pathExists;
                   ^

TypeError: Cannot set property pathExists of #<Object> which has only a getter

    at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1153:10)

I’ve tried uninstalling/reinstalling Node, upgrading to latest; uninstalling @ionic/cli, even attempted installing the old deprecated “ionic” package, all with the same issue. I can’t even run ionic --version without this issue appearing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
