Error on first build EONENT on completely unchanged fresh install

[tom2strobl]

I just ran npx create-bolt-cep with only react and indesign selected in a subdir bolt-cep-test, followed by cd bolt-cep-test followed by a safety npm install followed by a npm run build (which you said should be done before npm run dev).

I did not change any file at all, just the fresh install.

Immediately running into:

npm run build
