cb() never called! when installing #vue/cli - vue.js

Question

Newbie here, I am trying to install vue cli for frontend development with npm, but it is throwing an error.
Here is the output of sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
[18:00 vue]$ sudo npm install -g #vue/cli

I tried with and without sudo, the same error.
My machine runs Manjaro KDE 20.2, npm version 6.14.9, node v15.4.0. I have tried:
retrying to see if it works this time
sudo npm cache verify and sudo npm cache clean --force
removing /usr/lib/node_modules
reinstalling node and npm
anything else i found on the internet
I'm stuck on this error for a few days, any help is appreciated.
It's interesting that it works without -g flag, installing to current folder, but I can't figure out how to use vue command then.

Answer 1

Okay, i removed that Manjaro, and grabbed the latest version of ubuntu, this solved my problem, will never install Manjaro again.
