Due to the way nvm is designed, you have to source it before you can use it:

source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh

You will probably want that in your shell startup file, e.g.:

echo 'source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh' >> ~/.bashrc

See nvm.install or the upstream README for more details.

@tomwadley i already tried using no aur helper before i commentet here. And the output from using bsdtar directly is the same: 

❯ bsdtar -xf v0.38.0.zip
bsdtar: Pathname cannot be converted from UTF-8 to current locale.
bsdtar: Archive entry has empty or unreadable filename ... skipping.
bsdtar: Pathname cannot be converted from UTF-8 to current locale.

bsdtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

@garionion can you try downloading the zip file manually and extracting it with bsdtar? i.e.

$ wget https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm/archive/refs/tags/v0.38.0.zip
$ bsdtar -xf v0.38.0.zip

If that works, the next thing I'd try is to build this package without using any AUR helper (download snapshot, run makepkg).

hi, with 0.38.0-1 i get "Failed to extract nvm-0.38.0.zip":

==> Extracting sources...
  -> Extracting nvm-0.38.0.zip with bsdtar
bsdtar: Pathname cannot be converted from UTF-8 to current locale.

My locale is:

❯ locale -a
C
C.utf8
POSIX
de_DE
de_DE.iso88591
de_DE.iso885915@euro
de_DE.utf8
de_DE@euro
deutsch
en_US.utf8
german

Do you have any ideas?

@CliffJumper I can't reproduce that. I downloaded it manually and double checked - seems fine to me. Is it still happening?

For nvm 0.38.0 I'm getting a mismatch in the sha256 sum for the zip file

@joshsteele21 I found out that the cause was that I used a GUI tool to change the LC_TIME, but the locale I changed it to wasn't installed. I guess that's a bug in KDE.

Changing it to a locale that was actually supported has solved the issue.

@foxite I have a similar issue, it happens every once in a while after an update. Apparently the issue has to do with glibc, at least in my case. There are files missing in /usr/share/i18n/locales

see https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/604134/how-to-fix-missing-locale-files-on-manjaro/

@foxite presumably there is something wrong with your locale config. Take a look at the Locale wiki page.

Edit: For some reason I had assumed that sourcing init-nvm.sh was causing the error, but it's more likely that init-nvm.sh is encountering an error.

Adding this line to .bashrc as instructed:

source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh

Causes the following message to appear when I open a terminal:

manpath: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct

Removing the line causes the message to go away, though obviously I can't use nvm without it. I suspect that this is related to the inexplicable locale errors I have been getting in various other command line tools. Upon inspection, there seems to be nothing wrong with $LANG or my $LC_* variables; they are the same with or without init-nvm.

Any ideas what is causing this problem or how to fix it? It is pretty annoying, but seems harmless.
