Hi,  
We have upgraded our plugin from 7.9.3 to 7.16.3.

I have ran these commands

```auto
yarn cache clean
yarn kbn clean

BUILD_TS_REFS_DISABLE=true yarn kbn bootstrap --no-cache --debug --verbose

cd plugins/wind
rm -Rf build/
yarn build 

```

yarn build fails with these errors below

```auto
yarn build
yarn run v1.22.15

My issue got fixed. The problem was with preinstall in my package.json. I have removed it ran yarn kbn bootstrap again and yarn build

```auto
 "scripts": {
    "preinstall": "node ../../preinstall_check",

```

Thanks,  
Kris
