Search where node files are with find / -name 'node' | sed -E 's|/+$||' |sort -u. sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.dĪfter that, you can check if there is still node in your system with which node or find all occurrences for node in your system. sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/man/man1/node.1. Go to /usr/local/bin and delete any node executable Go to /usr/local/include and delete any node and node_modules directoryĬheck your $HOME directory for any “local” or “lib” or “include” folders, and delete any “node” or “node_modules” from there. Go to /usr/local/lib and delete any node and node_modules Go to /var/db/receipts/ and delete any org.nodejs.* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules /var/db/receipts/org.nodejs.*. You may need to do the additional instructions as well: sudo rm -rf /usr/local/ done If anyone has an explanation, I’ll choose that as the correct answer. How and why this was created instead of in my /usr/local folder, I do not know.ĭeleting these local references fixed the phantom v0.6.1-pre. Ideally, I’d like to uninstall nodejs, npm, and nvm, and just reinstall the entire thing from scratch on my system.Īpparently, there was a /Users/myusername/local folder that contained a include with node and lib with node and node_modules. 
Now there’s folders in my users directory, and the node version STILL isn’t up to date, even though NVM says it’s using 0.6.19.

I’ve tried uninstalling npm and reinstalling it following these instructions.Īll of this because I was trying to update an older version of node to install the “zipstream” library. I’ve tried deleting the “node” directory in my /usr/local/include and the “node” and “node_modules” in my /usr/local/lib. I tried using BREW to update before NVM, using brew update and brew install node.
So where is this phantom node 0.6.1-pre version and how can I get rid of it? I’m trying to install libraries via NPM so that I can work on a project.
NVM says this (after I install a version of node for the first time in one bash terminal): nvm lsīut when I restart bash, this is what I see: nvm ls My version of node is always v0.6.1-pre even after I install brew node and NVM install v0.6.19.
