util.safeProp is not a function

[viktorhunko]

protobuf.js version: 6.8.1

I'm using proto-webpack-plugin with protobuf.js and after recent updates this error occurs: util.safeProp is not a function

proto-webpack-plugin run pbjs like:

pbjs.main(['-t', 'json-module', '-w', 'commonjs', '-o', options.outputFile].concat(files), function(err, output) {
    if (err) { throw err; }
  });

TypeError: util.safeProp is not a function

Does this fix it for you?

+1 to issue. Commit fixed the problem (at least, no error is thrown after file patching)

@dcodeIO yep, it works. I will be very grateful if you could update npm
Thanks!
