Node@14.16.1+npm@6.14.12下npm ci间歇性出现cb() never called!错误求助

多条构建流水线执行npm ci时会间歇性失败，报错为error cb() never called!，该错误随机出现在下载并提取某个npm包之后（本次日志中触发错误的是date-fns@2.30.0）。

环境与执行流程 #

• 执行命令：npm ci --loglevel verbose，执行前会先运行npm cache verify任务
• Node版本：14.16.1，npm版本：6.14.12
• npm包源：私有DevOps Artifacts Feeds

已尝试的无效方案 #

• 执行npm cache clean --force清理缓存
• 手动删除构建服务器上的npm-cache文件夹

流水线并非每次都失败，偶尔能正常完成构建。恳请有类似经验的同行分享排查思路或解决方案，感谢！
