Since today, npm install hangs on the buildDeps step. It worked fine yesterday but ceased to work today. No updates of any kind had been done in the meantime, i.e. I do not see any reason why it simply stopped to work.
It also does not fail just for a single, specific package or project, the install also fails for other packages and when installing something globally. I have tried deleting the package-lock.json.
It does not hang forever, but for very long (several minutes). Eventually, a timeout error will be thrown. This error is not always thrown by the "buildDeps" stage, sometimes npm is able to go past this stage (after several minutes, as mentioned).
I am using Arch Linux and npm v8.5.5. I have done a complete system-update since the error started to occur, the problem remained the same.
