This is due to a missing index.js file within npm being referenced in its package,json main property.

Tested with npm installed via linux homebrew.

When running the tests included in this project with npm 8 the tests fail with
Error: The programmatic API was removed in npm v8.0.0

This issue is casued by a breaking change of npm@8, npm/cli#3762.
I have tried to make global-npm work under npm@8, but it seems that programmatic api via require('npm') may be no longer supported.
