any steps on how to reinstall lazy ? it wont start because of the broken version now

[SoichiroYamane]

To reinstall fixed version, back up your local files

mv ~/.local/share/nvim{,.bak}
mv ~/.local/state/nvim{,.bak}
mv ~/.cache/nvim{,.bak}

And then, rerun nvim

I fix it in this way.
edit ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/lazy.nvim/lua/lazy/inti.lua+5
modify "vim.uv = vim.uv or vim.uv" to "vim.uv = vim.uv or vim.loop"
then you can enter nvim normally and reinstall lazy.nvim by its own ui

[folke]

For others running into this, just remove lazy and let it re-install itself.

rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/lazy.nvim

I'm actually still having this problem. Fresh install. If I check .local/share/nvim/lazy/lazy.nvim/lua/lazy/core/config.lua I see M.version = "10.19.0".

[tylercecil]

I ended up checkout out version 10.17.0, and things work as expected. Are we sure the fix worked?

[folke]

Yes, unless require('lazy') is not the first lazy module you require.

[folke]

@tylercecil if you're using LazyVim, then you also need to update that

[rcmosher]

I just copied the install to a fresh init.lua, using nvim appimage v0.9.5 with no configuration and I get the error. To resolve it I had to swap uv with loop (found in an older tutorial) and it worked. If I switch back to uv it still doesn't work.

[folke]

That's because you used vim.uv in the bootstrap code.

The readme has been updated to correct this

[looserouting]

I encountered the same problem. I installed neovim from AUR(0.9.5). Only the bootstrap code was in init.lua.

The error disappears after I inserted setup(). Since it was step 2 I did not add it at first.

require("lazy").setup("plugins")
