jsdoc/check-examples fails in eslint 8

[hildjj]

Expected behavior

Using eslint 8.0.1, using jsdoc/check-examples, I expect my jsdoc example code to be linted.

Actual behavior

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 8.0.1

TypeError: _eslint.CLIEngine is not a constructor

(Please ignore the pnpm paths, I have the same issue using npm.)

My guess is that this is the cause.

ESLint Config

{ 
  "rules": {
    "jsdoc/check-examples": ["error"]
  }
}

ESLint sample

/**
 * The codec information for
 * {@link https://github.com/Level/encoding-down encoding-down}, which is a
 * codec framework for leveldb.  CBOR is a particularly convenient format for
 * both keys and values, as it can deal with a lot of types that JSON can't
 * handle without losing type information.
 *
 * @example
 * const level = require('level')
 * const cbor = require('cbor')
 *
 * async function putget() {
 *   const db = level('./db', {
 *     keyEncoding: cbor.leveldb,
 *     valueEncoding: cbor.leveldb,
 *   })
 *
 *   await db.put({a: 1}, 9857298342094820394820394820398234092834n)
 *   const val = await db.get({a: 1})
 * }
