Comment:

 I've provided some testing instructions just in case anyone else could
 replicate this issue that @desrosj is reporting. I couldn't be on my side,
 and we are assuming there are no duplicates to begin with.

 Replying to [comment:7 jtquip88]:
 > I didn’t include a fix for this because I assumed we’d want to
 investigate and address it separately. This error occurs because the
 parsing logic expects "dependencies" to be a top-level property in
 package-lock.json. However, in newer versions of npm (v7+), dependencies
 are nested under individual packages within the "packages" section.

 In this specific regard, I agree with you, and I would suggest you opening
 a new ticket with the proposed changes to reanimate the conversation
 around this topic and if possible adding some testing instructions to
 replicate.

 I'm going to mark this post as a `close` candidate with a potential
 `worksforme`.
