less@4.5.1 failed to run in node.js version 14

[DLLluoluo]

To reproduce:

// less code here

Current behavior:
The old project we are maintaining uses version 14 of Node.js, which works fine in versions prior to less@4.5.1 but fails in less@4.5.1. This is a serious problem. All third-party libraries that depend on less@4.5.1 will fail to run in node.js version 14.

Expected behavior:
less@4.5.1 can run normally in the node.js14 environment

Environment information:
less@4.5.1

• less version: 4.5.1
• nodejs version: v14.21.3
• operating system:

The MODULE_NOT_FOUND error for scripts/postinstall.js in less@4.5.1 is not caused by Node.js 14 compatibility, but by a packaging issue: the scripts/postinstall.js file does not exist in the source or the published npm package. This is because less@4.5.1 on npm is not an official release and does not correspond to any tagged commit or release in the Less.js GitHub repository, making its authenticity and safety questionable. The latest official release is 4.4.2, which does not have this problem. For Node.js 14 projects, it's safest to use 4.4.2 until an official, traceable release is published and the repository and npm package are aligned. More details are discussed in this issue.

To reply, just mention @dosu.
