Try with --force option.

is there any other solution rather than using --force

No, I think this library has been abandoned unfortunately. @fritz-c would be able to confirm/deny.

You can use --force to install and it mostly works - issues with StrictMode, see #672 for issue with initial loading in case you run into it.
