I was just pulling my hair out over the same issue. Issue is ng add installs an out of date version (I forget which one, but something ancient). Clearing caches, deleting node_modules/, and reinstalling made no difference.

Workaround: just specify the version you want (eg. ng add ngx-auth-firebaseui@latest)
