I know for a fact that at least `search`, `install`, and `apm --version` don't work. `list` and `remove` do work. I've found some issues with this exact error, but their solutions don't work for me. ### Steps to Reproduce 1. Install atom on Manjaro (Linux 5.10) with `sudo pacman -Syu atom` 2. Install a package in atom or from the command line, as an example you could do `apm install teletype`. This will error out **Expected behavior:** The package to be installed **Actual behavior:** I get this error when installing packages with `apm install [package_name]`: ```node node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:478 throw e; ^ Error [ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED]: Package subpath './bin/npm-cli' is not defined by "exports" in /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/package.json at new NodeError (node:internal/errors:329:5) at throwExportsNotFound (node:internal/modules/esm/resolve:337:9) at packageExportsResolve (node:internal/modules/esm/resolve:562:3) at resolveExports (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:472:36) at Function.Module._findPath (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:512:31) at Function.node_module._findPath (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/node_modules/asar-require/lib/require.js:141:32) at Function.Module._resolveFilename (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:909:27) at Function.resolve (node:internal/modules/cjs/helpers:98:19) at new Install (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/lib/install.js:53:34) at Object.run (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/lib/apm-cli.js:240:18) { code: 'ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED' } ``` **Reproduces how often:** 100% of the time ### Versions `apm --version`: ```node /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/npm.js:135 throw new TypeError('must call as: npm.load(callback)') ^ TypeError: must call as: npm.load(callback) at Object.load (/usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/npm.js:135:13) at getPythonVersion (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/lib/apm-cli.js:155:16) at printVersions (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/lib/apm-cli.js:94:12) at Object.run (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/lib/apm-cli.js:223:16) at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/bin/apm:9:30) at Module._compile (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1091:14) at Object.Module._extensions..js (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1120:10) at Module.load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:971:32) at Function.Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:812:14) at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (node:internal/modules/run_main:76:12) ``` `atom --version`: ``` Atom : 1.54.0 Electron: 6.1.12 Chrome : 76.0.3809.146 Node : 12.4.0 ``` `npm --version`: `7.6.0` OS: Manjaro (KDE) with Linux 5.10 kernel
