I've got the same error.

BTW: The Wikipedia maps style really sucks because it's just another pale style which we have tons of.

I've also encountered this error and its been confounding and hard to replicate. I recommend trying again with the latest npm version npm install npm -g, removing any package-lock.json temporarily, and then seeing if the problem goes away. If not please create a new ticket with details of what versions of things you've tried.

npm install npm -g
