I am trying to install Astro Vim and after installation, I get prompted with a big block of lua errors. I asked some chatbot for what this might mean and it said that it's probably due to an outdated version of nvim... I got the latest 0.10.0 stable. Does someone know on why this might be happening? I get a very similar error when installing nvchad. Here is the output from nvim once I open it

Error detected while processing /home/marty/.config/nvim/init.lua:

Is there an install step that you need to run to get the expected dependencies (other than the git clone)?

How did you install neovim? If you installed from source, double check that you followed the instructions, i.e. install build dependencies and then run:

make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
sudo make install

Also, double check the version of nvim in your PATH matches:

nvim --version

Turns out I messed up at some point. According to the version command I did have 0.9.5, but some internal files were missing because I installed neovim manually (by extracting the files from their appimage). But now I have fixed it. I added the binary to my PATH and now everything works great. Even upgraded to 0.10.0 and it still works.
