Description

If this lines are in the package-lock.json I get a symlink loop on my linux docker environment.

    "cordova-plugin-device": {
      "version": "1.1.6",
      "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova-plugin-device/-/cordova-plugin-device-1.1.6.tgz",
      "integrity": "sha1-LSF2TK18m4AVI+TgmjDgJLJJM0s="
    },

Here is the package.json:

{
    "version": "0.0.1",
    "author": "Ionic Framework",
    "homepage": "http://ionicframework.com/",
    "private": true,
    "dependencies": {
        "cordova-plugin-device": "^1.1.6"
    },
    "devDependencies": {
        "@ionic/cli-plugin-cordova": "1.4.0",
        "@ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular": "1.3.1",
        "typescript": "2.3.4"
    },
    "cordova": {
        "plugins": {
            "cordova-plugin-device": {}
        },
        "platforms": [
            "android",
            "ios"
        ]
    }
}

And this is the error.

Error: npm: Command failed with exit code 216 Error output:
npm ERR! path
/bitrise/src/node_modules/cordova-plugin-device/package.json
npm ERR! code ELOOP
npm ERR! errno -40
npm ERR! syscall open
npm ERR! ELOOP: too many symbolic links encountered, open
'/bitrise/src/node_modules/cordova-plugin-device/package.json'

Don't know what the problem is with this package-lock.json entry.
