Thanks for reporting this. This relates to a corresponding issue with npm-force-resolutions here rogeriochaves/npm-force-resolutions#10 - I'll see if I can come up with a workaround.

This seems to be the real issue: package-lock.json doesn't get published to npm, that's why the preinstall script will not find it: rogeriochaves/npm-force-resolutions#12

[AkshayPeshave]

I can confirm that install breaks and package-lock.json isn't generated when I include d3-milestones in package.json. Installation completes when I disable scripts (npm install --ignore-scripts) since it disables the preinstall script. Packages won't work as expected though since some scripts are needed. But this may help zero-in on the root cause in code.

I updated the build setup to no longer make use of npm-force-resolutions, it caused too much trouble with that preinstall issue. Just released v1.0.1 which should install without the error.
