How did you install nvm?

https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager

What steps did you perform?

$ npm i -g eslint
$ echo 'require("eslint");' | node
Error: Cannot find module 'globals'
$ eslint -v
v9.11.0

What happened? What did you expect to happen?

I can run modules installed globally so the path is working fine, but I can't import them and module.paths seems to be missing node/version/lib/node_modules and when I add it, it seems to work as I would expect

$ node

Is there anything in any of your profile files that modifies the PATH?

PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
