Duplicate #955.

Since this is the 5th duplicate of this issue posted in the last 24 hours, despite the issue being pinned to the top of the issues list, I'm leaving this one open in hopes people will actually look at the issue list before repeatedly posting it.

I know it's impacting people. It is already resolved, but it takes some time to cut a release. I have a product launch for a paid client taking precedence this week. As soon as I have time, I will release v1.1.11. In the meantime, nothing is preventing anyone from running nvm install 19.9.0 to get the latest version.

Apologies that I missed it! I just did a google search rather than a github search and little came up. Thanks and apologies once again.

[chratschan]

That being said nvm install 19.9.0 did give the same error for me. I'll try again next release.

[coreybutler]

@chratschan - I didn't mean to target you personally, so apologies if it came across that way. It's just a trend I've seen. If nvm install 19.9.0 is not working, that could be filed as a separate issue. I'm still leaving this open so others see it. I'll close it after the release of 1.1.11.

[coreybutler]

1.1.11 is now available in the releases.
