I've reverted back to 0.39.5 for now due to the zsh issue
EDIT: This issue has been resolved
@llevkin From what I can tell, this is an upstream issue: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm/issues/3247
I can reproduce it with upstream's installer (once I've actually installed a node version into the new nvm) so I'm pretty sure its not the package's fault.
I have received "nvm:867: command not found: hash" message any time then I opened new zsh shell. It's started after update to version 0.39.6-1.
After installing this package and sourcing init-nvm.sh i having this issue
manpath: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct
Update: forgot to generate locale for LC_TIME :p
@amatos are you using the fish
shell? nvm doesn't support fish. See the notes in the upstream readme. But there are some alternatives/workarounds listed there too and some of those also appear to be in the AUR.
I get this error when running source:

@tukusejssirs as I replied to @meijin, this package doesn't create those files. In fact, the entire purpose of nvm
is to not pollute your system node installation. With nvm
you install a local version of node
and npm
, with a local node_modules
for "globally" installed packages.
If for example I install a package globally:
nvm use 16 # Now using node v16.14.0
npm install -g pm2
It will install into my local node's node_modules
. For me that is: ~/.nvm/versions/node/v16.14.0/lib/node_modules/pm2/
. nvm
also put this on my PATH
so I have access to the global pm2
binary (and for that matter the npm and node binaries themselves): ~/.nvm/versions/node/v16.14.0/bin
.
I experienced same conflict as @meijin has described in his comment, at least twice in the past month (I think it occurred every time npm
package installed via pacman
was updated).
The error from pacman -S npm
(run via yay -S npm
) I had today was:
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
npm: /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/package-url-cmd.js exists in filesystem
npm: /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/utils/format-search-stream.js exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
-> error installing repo packages
I worked this issue around simply renaming /usr/lib/node_modules
, installing npm
and restoring globally installed NPM packages:
# Move old global `node_modules`
sudo mv /usr/lib/node_modules{,.bak}
# Reinstall system `npm`
yay -S npm
# Remove packages installed by `npm` system package
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/node_modules.bak/{node-gyp,nopt,npm}
# Move previously globally installed NPM packages into newly installed global `node_modules`
sudo mv /usr/lib/node_modules.bak/* /usr/lib/node_modules
# Remove old global `node_modules`
sudo rmdir /usr/lib/node_modules.bak
I hope this issue will be solved, however, I have no idea why it happens in the first place.
The package is fine. My config was the problem.
I'm using zsh
as my shell and had the line source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh
in my .zshenv
. Moving it to .zshrc
fixed it.
Looks like my distro sources .zshenv
on every keybinding I press. I don't know...
Beginner in arch here. I installed the EndeavorOS bspwm (community) edition and it works perfectly until I install this package.
This is how I installed it:
yay -S --noconfirm nvm
source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh
nvm install node
and all of a sudden all of my keybindings take 1-2 seconds to register, as opposed to instantly.
I went so far as to reinstall the distro and install each package I use and reboot the system (I know it's overkill) until I found what was slowing it down.
After finding out, removing this package with yay -Rusn nvm
"fixed" the problem.

Due to the way nvm is designed, you have to source it before you can use it:
You will probably want that in your shell startup file, e.g.:
See nvm.install or the upstream README for more details.
