• How did you install nvm? (e.g. install script in readme, homebrew): homebrew

• What steps did you perform?

I tried to install node from source to specify additional ICU options.

nvm install -s v8 --with-intl=system-icu
nvm install -s v8 --with-intl=full-icu --download=all

• What happened?

Install failed. Although I specified either system-icu or full-icu, the logs refer to small-icu.

nvm: install v8.9.4 failed!

• What did you expect to happen?

To install node v8 with full ICU support.

• Is there anything in any of your profile files (.bashrc, .bash_profile, .zshrc, etc) that modifies the PATH?

[ljharb]

As you can see in ./configure --prefix=/Users/oncletom/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.4 --with-intl=full-icu --download=all, the full-icu option is properly passed to configure; I'm not really sure what's going on here.

I tried reading through https://github.com/nodejs/node/wiki/Intl#full-icu-vs-small-icu but nothing popped up.

[rvagg]

$>./configure --prefix=/Users/oncletom/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.4  --with-intl=full-icu --download=all<

Is the < at the end part of the command? or is that a bounding character like the $> at the start. It's a syntax error with it, but without it I don't get the same output and it does full-icu even with that same version of Node (at least from the full git source, maybe there's something about the tarball..). I wonder is there any persistent config files possible in this environment? Could there be a config.gypi, config.mk, etc. or is this going to be from a fresh source download?

[ljharb]

i assume it’s a bouncing character.

As for config files, would they all be relative to the node installation? Or might some be at home dir or machine level?

[thom4parisot]

Indeed, I did not realise bouncing chars were part of the pasted output.

I got puzzled when I saw * Using ICU in deps/icu-small. It seems flags are passed to the node configure command line. I wonder why it has no effect.

ICU configuration goes well when I run the same command with Node sources and with homebrew formula on macOS.

Is there anything that could be helpful to get down to the root of the problem?

[nickserv]

This is causing issues on Travis because it uses nvm to install Node, and some Node features work differently on Linux under the default ICU: travis-ci/travis-ci#9422

[ljharb]

@nickmccurdy fwiw, a test like that for number precision is inherently problematic, because precisions are always implementation-dependent - while this issue still needs to be solved in nvm, a better solution for you is to change your test to be robust against varying precisions.

[nickserv]

Thanks, I was using Number.prototype.toLocaleString but I couldn't figure out how to simulate a specific precision in my test so I removed it.

[AaronPresley]

I'm also having the same issue. When running:

nvm install -s v6.7.0 --with-intl=full-icu

I get the following output:

Note that running nvm install -s v6.7.0 works as expected. This error only occurs when passing the --with-intl=full-icu option.

Using zsh 5.4.1 on macOS 10.12.6

Edit: For anyone still looking to solve this issue, I've written up some instructions on how to have multiple versions of node installed on your machine with full ICU support (without the use of nvm). See post here.

[thom4parisot]

Interestingly, the ICU download works when I change the following line:

https://github.com/creationix/nvm/blob/04c27e23fe82ff2edc7b3ff7f87fa191ad3e97e0/nvm.sh#L2060

with

./configure --prefix="${VERSION_PATH}" --with-intl=full-icu --download=all && \

I can't get my head around why the content of the variable is not received down the line by the ./configure command 🤔

PS: I use zsh with macOS 10.12.3 (16D30).

[ljharb]

@oncletom ok, this is getting somewhere - what happens if you echo "|$ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS|" on the line before that? Then, what happens if you try it in bash? If it works in bash but not zsh, what's the output of setopt?

[thom4parisot]

This is the output I get:

| --with-intl=full-icu --download=all|

I tried replacing the ./configure line with that, and it worked (although it sounds like a hack):

./configure --prefix="${VERSION_PATH}" $(echo -n $ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS) && \

This one works too:

command bash -c "./configure --prefix="${VERSION_PATH}" ${ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS}" && \
