But seems working fine with previous versions:

 npx -p conventional-recommended-bump@9 -p conventional-changelog-angular@7 -c 'conventional-recommended-bump -p angular'
patch

Is this a bug? Or I'm doing something wrong?

@mbiagetti Hi. It look like problem with npm, not conventional-changelog packages

@dangreen you're right: I'm not able to reproduce using docker images:

docker run -it -v "$PWD":/usr/src/app -w /usr/src/app docker.io/library/node:20-bullseye  npx -p conventional-recommended-bump -p conventional-changelog-angular -c 'conventional-recommended-bump -p angular'
Need to install the following packages:
conventional-recommended-bump@10.0.0
conventional-changelog-angular@8.0.0
Ok to proceed? (y) y
