Installing NVM on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS?

Trying to install NVM on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. When I run the install script this happens:


ole@ole-ThinkPad-T470:~/Temp/nv$ wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/install.sh | bash
=> Downloading nvm as script to '/home/ole/.nvm'
Failed to download 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/nvm-exec'
Failed to download 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/nvm.sh'

=> nvm source string already in /home/ole/.bashrc
Failed to download 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/bash_completion'
=> bash_completion source string already in /home/ole/.bashrc
main: line 433: /home/ole/.nvm/nvm.sh: No such file or directory
=> Close and reopen your terminal to start using nvm or run the following to use it now:

export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"  # This loads nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion"  # This loads nvm bash_completion

But if I wget one of the scripts that fails to download it works:


ole@ole-ThinkPad-T470:~/Temp/nv$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/nvm-exec

uninstalling snap curl and installing apt install resolved this for me as well,

sudo snap remove curl
sudo apt install curl
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/install.sh | bash
nvm install node

It looks like it's related to installing wget or curl with snap on Ubuntu:

https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm/issues/2504

Here's what fixed it for me:

sudo snap remove curl
sudo apt install curl
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/install.sh | bash
nvm install node
