deepmerge component not available

[tariqinaam]

After upgrading html5-skin to 4.11.13/14 from 4.10.6, I get error of 'deepmerge is not a function'
I tried to isolate this issue and it seems if there is requirejs is on the page, then this specific error occur. I am not loading html5-skin or other ooyala player component via requirejs.
Same site work fine with 4.10.6
Exact console log error is:

Uncaught TypeError: DeepMerge is not a function at Html5Skin.loadConfigData (html5-skin.js:6306) at Html5Skin.<anonymous> (html5-skin.js:5727) at fire (core.js:2247) at Object.fireWith [as resolveWith] (core.js:2357) at done (core.js:9076) at XMLHttpRequest.callback (core.js:9791)

Try npm install.

deepMerge was added as a dependency in package.json in 4.11.13.

I did try npm install and it stil couldn't fix.
When I try load html5-skin via requirejs, it fixes the deepmerge unknown function error but then it throws
Mismatched anonymous define() module: function ()
I think this is more of a deepmerge library issue with requirejs.. Just wondering if anyone tried to use it requirejs.

I have tried all possible way but it doesn't work with requirejs.
It complain about deepmerge not available. I have tried bundled html5-skin js as well.

has anyone able to make this work with requirejs

Since there's an incompatibility between deepmerge and Require.js, the html5-skin needs to be loaded separately. Additionally, whenever you load incompatible scripts along with RequireJS, you need to make sure to load the RequireJS script after these other scripts load.

deepmerge@1.4.0 exposes a CommonJS entry point via the pkg.browser field, so if you rebuild with 1.4.0 or later, people using AMD modules shouldn't have any issues. A pull request is open to bump the version: #759.

Are there any plans to release a version of the player with deepmerge@1.4.0?
