[email protected]: Failed to find native module for linux-arm64: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'pactffiInitWithLogLevel')

[fbarril]

I am getting the following error running inside a docker container on a mac m1.

[03:01:45.022] ERROR (361): [email protected]: Failed to find native module for linux-arm64: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'pactffiInitWithLogLevel')

    const messagePact = new MessageConsumerPact({
        consumer: 'a.b-service-i',
        provider: 'a.b-provider',
        pactfileWriteMode: 'update', 
        logLevel: 'trace', 
    })

I can provide more info if necessary.
