Additional Context

I ran this on MacOS with

$ npm --version
9.8.1

Expected behavior

install or preinstall should work. In fact there is no need to require global installation of the pem-jwk module.
The script that uses the module (deploy-authorize-idp-access-tokens.sh ) can easily reference it from node_modules.

have to run as sudo

sudo npm install as the preinstall script is installing the module globally
