I am trying to require the [p5.dom library](https://p5js.org/reference/#/libraries/p5.dom) for p5.js – e.g. using the version on cloudflare. I tried the [module require debugger](https://beta.observablehq.com/@tmcw/module-require-debugger) notebook, which suggests:

```
require('p5@0.6.1/lib/addons/p5.dom.js')

```

…but this results in `undefined` in the Observable notebook. Adding `.catch() => .catch(() => window.p5dom` also results in `undefined`.

@tom – does this look the same as the `libR.js` issue above, or is this a different issue?
