repl

What steps will reproduce the bug?

set type: "module" in package.json, and then try to run node -r ./some-module.js. It will fail with the error

[Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module .../some-module.js not supported.
Instead change the require of repl.js in null to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.] {
  code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'

I suppose that when using -r in an ESM repo, the repl must use await import instead of require for -r arguments?

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

every time when the project is ESM and you try to load a local file as a module

What is the expected behavior?

it works

What do you see instead?

'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'

Actually, looks like this is a duplicate of #35103
