Description

This package (deep-eql) is used in chai latest version as a dependency.
deep-eql package has a dependency from "karma": "^0.13.22"

Using even the latest(v3.0.1) version of the deep-eql package I am getting the following error:

lerna ERR! execute Error: Command failed: npm install
lerna ERR! execute npm WARN EBADENGINE Unsupported engine {
lerna ERR! execute npm WARN EBADENGINE   package: 'karma@0.13.22',
lerna ERR! execute npm WARN EBADENGINE   required: { node: '0.10 || 0.12 || 4 || 5' },
lerna ERR! execute npm WARN EBADENGINE   current: { node: 'v16.13.1', npm: '8.1.2' }
lerna ERR! execute npm WARN EBADENGINE }

Please see also the screenshot:

My suggestion is to update karma version to a newer one that supports a higher version of the nodejs.

Research direction

Start with the karma dependency in package.json at the linked line and inspect its available versions and Node.js engine requirements. Verify the chosen update with npm install on a newer Node.js version; done means installation no longer reports the unsupported-engine warning while the existing package checks still pass.
