How should I modify the following script to encounter the problems of
which you speak?

----

unzip -q nim-0.10.2.zip

cd nim-0.10.2
sh build.sh > /dev/null
sh install.sh ../install_dir

cd ../install_dir
echo 'echo "Hello, Nim world!"' > hello.nim
nim/bin/nim c hello.nim
echo
./hello

----

When I run the script on my Ubuntu system, I get the following:

$ sh -x nim_test.sh
+ unzip -q nim-0.10.2.zip
+ cd nim-0.10.2
+ sh build.sh
+ sh install.sh ../install_dir
Nim build detected
copying files...
installation successful
+ cd ../install_dir
+ echo echo "Hello, Nim world!"
+ nim/bin/nim c hello.nim
