nodist: Error: Couldn't resolve version spec %s: %s
First of all, thank you very much for very useful application!
Now I got an error in nodeist@0.8.2 in Windows 8.1. I have installed node with version 4.4.7 with nodist.
When I command node in the directory, then I got an error Sorry, there's a problem with nodist. Couldn't resolve version spec %s: %s >=4.0.0 <7.0.0 improper constraint: >=4.0.0 <7.0.0.
The directory have package.json file which includes key "engines": {"node": ">=4.0.0 <7.0.0"}, it might make problem.
When I removed the line "engines": {"node": ">=4.0.0 <7.0.0"}, then the command node works well.

Mh. That’s a bug in the semver lib for the shims.
As an intermediate fix you can override local switching with env switching: you can set the desired version using
nodist env x.x.xOn July 14, 2016 11:25:39 AM CEST, Jack Cuthbert notifications@github.com wrote:

.node-versionfile, problem gone.Current progress on this issue: I’ve fixed the underlying library https://github.com/marcelklehr/semver and will release a new version soon.
Not sure if it’s directly connected to this, but here goes: Tried to install typescript and then execute
tsc -v(or anything else starting withtscand I get only this:Sorry, there's a problem with nodist. Couldn't resolve version spec %s: %s --help Unexpected character in constraint --help: --helpI’ve just released v0.8.3, which has the fix for this.
