On package Error: Could not locate gff utility: is nwn_gff installed?
On unpackage Error: Could not locate erf utility: is nwn_erf installed?

environment (Windows 10 22H2):

blarg  [0.1.1]
docopt  [0.7.0]
glob  [0.11.2]
nasher  [0.20.2]
neverwinter  [1.5.9, 1.6.3]
nimble  [0.14.2]
nwnt  [1.4.1]
regex  [0.20.2]
unicodedb  [0.12.0]

is this normal?

Not sure how it works on Windows, but on Linux nimble handles multiple installations of a binary package by symlinking the desired version from ~/.nimble/pkgs/${pgkname}-${pkgver}/${bin} to ~/.nimble/bin/${bin}. So the things to check would be:

  1. that the Windows equivalent of ~/.nimble/bin is in your path so the shell can locate the binaries, and
  2. that the appropriate binary is linked to from ~/.nimble/bin.

1. that the Windows equivalent of `~/.nimble/bin` is in your path so the shell can locate the binaries, and

2. that the appropriate binary is linked to from `~/.nimble/bin`.

oh, if so, multiple installation would override each other in ~/.nimble/bin/${bin}!

problem solved!
