Cannot install angular cli with npm

Question

I have followed the documentation here to install angualar cli

When I run the command in an empty directory $ npm install -g @angular/cli I got the following error :

npm ERR! code ETARGET
npm ERR! notarget No matching version found for semver@^7.3.5.
npm ERR! notarget In most cases you or one of your dependencies are requesting
npm ERR! notarget a package version that doesn't exist.
npm ERR! notarget 
npm ERR! notarget It was specified as a dependency of '@npmcli/git'
npm ERR! notarget 

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     ~/.npm/_logs/2021-06-11T14_50_50_128Z-debug.log

However semver7.3.5 can be found here

I don't understand why I get this error, does someone have the answer ?

$ node -v
v14.16.1

$ npm -v
6.14.12

EDIT

I have a custom npm registry

Answer 1

I had a custom registry defined here ~/.npmrc

Removing that registry allowed me to install @angular/cli successfully
