Ubuntu Server 20.04: oputil.js gives 'flat is not a function' error

See original GitHub issue

Describe the Bug Attempting to install using curl script, which appears to complete without issue. Unable to complete initial config due to ./oputil.js config new erroring out with

(node:319138) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: this.breakLines(...).flat is not a function

Will include full terminal output below

To Reproduce

Just run ./oputil.js config new after initial install. Tried npm rebuild with no effect.

Expected Behavior Expected prompts associated with first run configuration.

Actual Behavior

analytic@origin:~/enigma-bbs$ ./oputil.js config new
