package.json in the npm package has unwanted IVY metadata

Hi,

I finally figured what a bug I was experiencing since a few days was.

I was getting this when I was trying to ng build --prod with ivy in angular 8 :

ERROR in The ngcc compiler has changed since the last ngcc build.
Please completely remove `node_modules` and try again.

which I did many times without success…

I finally found out that the culprit was the ngx-permission package.json that has some ivy compiler metadata inside.

Especially this part:

"__processed_by_ivy_ngcc__": {
    "fesm2015": "8.0.0",
    "typings": "8.0.0",
    "fesm5": "8.0.0",
    "es2015": "8.0.0",
    "esm2015": "8.0.0",
    "esm5": "8.0.0",
    "module": "8.0.0"
  },

This part should just be local data, and not be something included in the npm package. (from my too small knowledge about it)

I’m not blaming anyone here 😃

I just don’t think that the ivy compiler should change the file and add some garbage metadata inside the package.json like that.

Can anyone remove the __processed_by_ivy_ngcc__ part from the npm package?

Thanks alot!

@AlexKhymenko Thx! Also, I believe that those tags will be ok when ivy will work, but not at the moment. EDIT: It works well now 😃

Oh I see that the published package.json file does indeed have these markers!! https://unpkg.com/ngx-permissions@7.0.2/package.json
