• If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem Run npm install with Angular 12.1.x, angulartics 11.0.0 and rxjs 6.6.x.

Why did that even happen? I thought that if I download a certain version in npm it will always be the same. But it looks like angulartics2 team pushed changes to the existing version?
