无法在 Ubuntu 上将 npm 更新到最新版本

Question

首先，我安装 npm

sudo apt-get install -y npm

其中安装了 npm 版本 3.5.2。然后我尝试将其更新到最新版本，但失败了。无法为此找到合适的解决方案。

sudo npm install npm@latest -g

我遇到了完全相同的问题，经过一番研究后我发现了这篇文章。本文给出了几个选项，带有 nvm 安装的选项 1 对我有用。

sudo apt update

sudo apt install build-essential checkinstall libssl-dev

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.35.1/install.sh | bash

nvm --version

nvm ls-remote

nvm install [version.number]

这是一个结果：https : //github.com/npm/cli/issues/2599

如果您对使用 npm 版本 6（当前 lts）感到满意，那么您可以运行：

sudo npm install -g npm@latest-6

要安装最新的版本 6，这可以节省您涉及另一个包管理器。
