> node "node_modules/.bin/orbitdb" create /orbitdb/demo docstore
Error: Cannot read property 'set' of undefined
Command failed: node "/home/xxx/orbitdb/node_modules/orbit-db-cli/src/bin" create /orbitdb/demo docstore
Error: Cannot read property 'set' of undefined

The error Cannot read property 'set' of undefined is probably unrelated.

The issue comes with "node_modules/.bin/orbitdb" create /orbitdb/demo docstorewhere it appears the binary tries to make a docstore at/orbitdb/demo`.

Same can be seen with another command:

$ ORBITDB_PATH=/home/xxx/orbitdb npx orbitdb create hello feed
Error: Cannot read property 'set' of undefined
$ file /home/ber/tmp/orbitdb
/home/xxxx/orbitdb: cannot open `/home/xxxx/orbitdb' (No such file or directory)

Note that the xxx is to censor some directory-names only.
