Comment (by desrosj):

 One option to fix this is to remove the `postinstall` scripts entirely.
 `gutenberg:verify` is the first Grunt task when `build` is run, which
 ensures the `gutenberg` directory is present and contains the files for
 the commit SHA value pinned in the `package.json` file.

 However, a potential downside of this approach is that the files will not
 be present locally unless someone runs a `build` command. In my opinion,
 this is reasonable because there are other files that must also be built
 for WP to be usable (this is [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/?tab=readme-ov-file#development-environment-commands documented in
 the README.md], though probably deserves it's own section.

 Other solutions I have found so far do not seem to work across platforms.
