urijs shasum check fails the installation

[Marius-Stroe]

I'm opening this issue because:

I can't create or use a react app anymore as npm fails with the following message:

...

See entire npm-debug.log

It suddenly started happening when creating a simple react app with create-react-app dummy_app. Any help would be appreciated as I can't do anything right now: can't install any package.json dependencies.

Thanks!

Hello! This is a duplicate of #14626. Try updating to the latest version of npm, as it was fixed there.

We're closing this support issue as it has gone three days without activity. The npm CLI team itself does not provide support via this issue tracker, but we are happy when users help each other here. In our experience once a support issue goes dormant it's unlikely to get further activity. If you're still having problems, you may be better served by joining package.community and asking your question there.
