How to upgrade lodash, why my upgrade failed – Ubuntu

When I run the upgrade in the nodejs directories, the following error is displayed:

sudo npm install lodash@latest

npm WARN saveError ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/usr/share/nodejs/package.json'
npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/usr/share/nodejs/package.json'

When I run the upgrade in the lodash directories, the following error is displayed:

/usr/share/nodejs/lodash$ sudo npm install lodash@latest
npm ERR! code ENOSELF
npm ERR! Refusing to install package with name "lodash" under a package
npm ERR! also called "lodash". Did you name your project the same
npm ERR! as the dependency you're installing?

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /root/.npm/_logs/2023-03-20T03_12_36_652Z-debug.log

When I ran the upgrade command in other directories, I found that lodash was installed in

/home/ubuntu/node_modules/,
/node_modules$ll
drwxrwxr -x 5 ubuntu ubuntu 4096 Mar 20 03:11 ./
dr-xr-xr-x 23 ubuntu ubuntu 4096 Mar 20 03:11 ../
drwxrwxr-x 2 ubuntu ubuntu 4096 Feb 28 2020 .bin/
drwxr-xr-x 3 ubuntu ubuntu 20480 Mar 20 03:11 lodash/

I don’t know nodejs and lodash.

Does anyone know how to update lodash in the /usr/share/nodejs directory? I don’t know if it needs to be updated here. When I use npm list lodash, only this directory shows the version information.

Also, I don’t know that lodash is not in the node_modules directory, because I didn’t install it, and I don’t know what to do with it

What are the many lodash.* files under the nodejs directory, and what are their functions? Are they all lodash?

    I am thinking that you installed package globally.
    Once try :npm update -g <package_name>

    my package.json file and lodash version

    my package.json file and lodash version

    To update lodash version simply use command npm install lodash@<lodash_version>

    for example : npm install [email protected]

    after use this command update Easily lodash version

    after use this command update simply lodash version
