I’m getting the following runtime error:

Failed to resolve module specifier "@angular/common/locales/global/en-IN". Relative references must start with either "/", "./", or "../".

I do not even have this import anywhere directly in my codebase, yet it is still causing runtime errors.

What I Tried

In federation.config.js, I attempted the following:

1. Manually added it to the shared list — did not resolve the issue.
2. Added it to the skip list — did not resolve the issue either.

At this point, neither sharing nor skipping the package seems to have any effect.

I earlier faced similar error with similar import, that import was in my code and I somehow managed to "fix it". There's also a mention of it in #995 . But with this thing, I'm stuck here.

Any help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
