Same issue here. Maybe updating the apollo CLI packate to Rover?

Got to solve it on my project.

In our case I updated all service graphql scripts and commands to use Codegen to download and also build. This was because apollo CLI library was deprecated and threw dependency errors related to apollo federation. Now we use Codegen for both schema download and typescript build. Commands were updated for yarn dev and build.

But of course this might vary for your project. My suggestion is investigating which dependency is using apollo federation and trying to change it for a Node 18 compatible one.

Let me know if I can help.

The way I fixed it is by using resolutions feature of Yarn, which allows forcing using specific version of indirect package. In the example below I force using 0.38.1 version which compatible with Node 18.

  "resolutions": {
    "@nuxtjs/apollo/**/@apollo/federation": "0.38.1"
  }

Also while looking for solution found out that doing yarn install --ignore-engines also installs succesfully. But we went for above solution.

Some helpfull yarn command yarn why @apollo/federation to figure which packages depends on this one.
