Any help would be much appreciated. Not sure if it's anything with my python envs (conda) setup here,.

Thanks!

Ahhh Sorry! This does seem to duplicate a few issues.

Tried running this through bash not zsh and was able to install as expected.

I figured it was something in my PATH or grep that was causing the arch/os versions to not be set correctly...

[jordyjwilliams]

Not sure if there are any similar issues to this or how it came about so will leave open in the case someone can better explaini to me....

AFAIK the only things I had modifying my root were miniconda3 and standard oh-my-zsh setup...

Is there someway to make the output clearer here... As in perhaps a check for the path.

[gargolito]

I am experiencing this on kubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with nvm. Seems to be issue with how it is using curl - the tarball is not being downloaded. I used a workaround by modifying line 120 to force using wget. I changed the line from:
if nvm_has "curl"; then
to
if ! nvm_has "curl"; then

nvm debug output (Without workaround)

[jordyjwilliams]

Yeah @gargolito did you try using bash or another shell and did it work okay for you.

I was able to fix this for myself by editing my settings in my .zshrc and bashrc... I think miniconda and other things modifying my PATH may have been causing issues...

I think likely some issue with setting the shell version.... As can be seen in my reply below I did not get the OS version set correctly before these changes. Keeping the issue open for now as I think at least a few others had reported similar behaviour on various linux distros.

[jordyjwilliams]

@gargolito did yours attempt the download at all then try to compile from source? did you get a 404 error too?

[ljharb]

@gargolito (curl -s -k -A $UA) in your nvm debug output is suspicious; mine doesn't have that.

[gargolito]

That's my default curl alias. I'll try removing it

@gargolito if removing it fixes it, then a) you can keep those settings in $HOME/.curlrc without needing the alias, and b) that means there's probably a place that nvm can harden itself against aliases clobbering builtins :-)

[gargolito]

This fixed it. Thanks.

[jordyjwilliams]

@ljharb any idea on my issue at all as to a possible cause? Any ideas on fixes. I could look into submitting a PR just wandering where to start with this... Where is the URL path specifically set based on os versions etc

[ljharb]

@jordyjwilliams looking at your nvm debug, what happens if you remove your grep alias?

[jordyjwilliams]

@ljharb looking at my zshrc I didn't have any grep alias' setup in my config... Not sure where this is coming from?

[ljharb]

@jordyjwilliams .zprofile perhaps?

Even if you can't find the source, you can probably unalias grep and then run the nvm commands.

[ryenus]

How about this: ryenus@nvm_curl

We can add nvm_curl and use it to bypass aliased curl, happy to raise a PR if needed.

[ljharb]

@ryenus that as a PR would be great! altho i don't think we need nvm_curl, we can just inline the command.
