Unexpected error deploying NextJs app to Firebase Hosting with experimental web frameworks - firebase

Question

I would like to deploy my NextJs app to Firebase hosting but I am having issues when running firebase deploy or firebase deploy --only hosting
I did run firebase experiments:enable webframeworks before firebase init hosting.
I am unable to deploy from the CLI, through the CI/CD on github or even open the emulators.
System:
Ubuntu 22.10
Node version 16.19.1 and npm version 8.19.3 (Using NVM, I have tried other versions)
Firebase-tools version 11.23.1 (Downloaded using auto install script as per docs)
NextJs version 13.1.6
The firebase-debug.log file has the following error:
[debug] [2023-02-17T21:36:36.278Z] Error: Command failed: npm i --omit dev --no-audit

This is the hosting and functions rules in my firebase.json:

}
"functions": [

"npm --prefix \"$RESOURCE_DIR\" run lint",
"npm --prefix \"$RESOURCE_DIR\" run build"
]
}
