Package throws an error when imported in an ES module installed globally on Ubuntu

The error is:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/app-root-path-ubuntu-repro/node_modules/app-root-path/lib/resolve.js:111
        appRootPath = path.dirname(requireFunction.main.filename);
                                                        ^

I've created a repo that you can use to reproduce this error: https://github.com/tbroadley/app-root-path-ubuntu-repro

I think the issue is that app-root-path assumes that requireFunction.main is always defined. However, according to the Node.js documentation:

When the entry point is not a CommonJS module, require.main is undefined, and the main module is out of reach.
