Answer 1

I had the same problem: The new analytics feature of Angular CLI was blocking my CI: https://travis-ci.org/LVM-IT/lvo-logging-lib. Solution: set the environent variable NG_CLI_ANALYTICS equal to ci

export NG_CLI_ANALYTICS=ci

see: https://github.com/LVM-IT/lvo-logging-lib/blob/329d014aa34dea49522f036e8d0b3aa3f71e33e7/.travis.yml#L16
