Hi @asattler - these are warnings and do not block the packages from being installed.

The issue is coming from the overrides trying to fix vulnerabilities but Angular 14 is just out of security support and there isn't much that can be done.

As for functionality - these warnings do not harm building the libraries / applications.

Edit: It does seem compodoc 1.1.25, while fixing some vulnerabilities does conflict with requesting angular 18 packages which are not compatible with this node version. But v92 is reaching EOL, and the vulnerabilities are likely to continue increasing.

Thanks for clarification Cody!
