pm2 -v reports apparently old version

[brettz9]

What's going wrong?

I seem to be getting the wrong pm2 version. (I want to make sure I am on the latest version which may apparently fix an ESM issue I'm having which looks like #4540 .)

Apologies if missing something obvious here.

How could we reproduce this issue?

This is how I reproduce, but I don't know if there is some environmental difference:

1. npm install pm2@latest -g
2. pm2 -v shows 2.10.2 while npmjs.com lists the latest as 5.2.0
3. which pm2 shows /home/node/.nvm/versions/node/v14.17.1/bin/pm2

Ok, I see I should have apparently run the deb instructions, being on Ubuntu.

apt update && apt install sudo curl && curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Unitech/pm2/master/packager/setup.deb.sh | sudo -E bash -

...but it gives permission errors. I ran it with sudo for the apt update and apt install and that seemed to get it to work (after a restart).

Having another problem, but can look into that. Thanks!
