Google Closure Compiler on Mac with M3 chip

I use Multipass to run an Ubuntu 22.04 VM on the Mac with an Apple M3 Pro chip. From within my Ubuntu VM, I install the Google Closure Compiler by `sudo npm install -g google-closure-compiler`. It gets installed, but running it does nothing. e.g., invoking `google-closure-compiler` without any params should make it read the stdin, but it simply exits. Any other argument like `google-closure-compiler abc xyz` also exits without any errors reported. Am not sure if this is the VM's issue, but everything else installs and runs fine, so am filing this one here.
