It does not work with nodejs in unstable, but with nodejs in experimental.

$ node --experimental-modules bin/src/index.js           (node:32753) ExperimentalWarning: The ESM module loader is experimental.                        internal/modules/esm/default_resolve.js:69        let url = moduleWrapResolve(specifier, parentURL);                                                        ^                                                                                   Error: Cannot find package 'minimist' imported from /home/praveen/forge/node-rollup/bin/src/index.js                                                at Loader.resolve [as _resolve] (internal/modules/esm/default_resolve.js:69:13)                 at Loader.resolve (internal/modules/esm/loader.js:70:33)                                        at Loader.getModuleJob (internal/modules/esm/loader.js:143:40)                                  at ModuleWrap.<anonymous> (internal/modules/esm/module_job.js:43:40)                            at link (internal/modules/esm/module_job.js:42:36)

This means we will have to convert all dependencies as ES modules as well.
