Many advise you to remove the package-lock.json or the yarn.lock. This is clearly a bad idea!

I am using Yarn and I was able to correct this problem by removing only the caniuse-db and caniuse-lite entries in my yarn.lock and doing a yarn.

It is not necessary to break the main function of the lockfile by deleting it.
