Julia example recipe `examples/recipe_julia.yml` crashes (again)

no .julia and other monkeybusiness around. Can one of you fellas please test as well, just in case there is something wonky with me env? :beer:

[valeriupredoi]

OK 1.8.1 and 1.8.0 don't work either - fairly sure it's a package-level issue, @zklaus would you have some spare time look into this, please, mate? :beer:

The test https://github.com/ESMValGroup/ESMValTool/blob/d67068b8d565e0a5fbd423451f0d49003903f07e/tests/integration/test_diagnostic_run.py#L73 running a Julia diagnostic seems to be passing on CircleCI, the latest nightly run was successful.

@valeriupredoi, I can't reproduce the issue you encountered. The examples/recipe_julia.yml runs successfully for me using ESMValCore: 2.7.0rc2 and the exact same julia package as you from conda forge:

# Name                    Version                   Build  Channel
julia                     1.8.2                h6f5dd7c_0    conda-forge

For past releases, I was the one not managing to run Julia recipes while others could do it successfully. Never really understood why... Perhaps you have an old Julia installation left somewhere...

[valeriupredoi]

Perfect! Thanks gents, if two tell me am drunk, then am off home :grinning: Am gonna close this then

I'd like to dig deeper into this and understand why the heck my runs fail on two different machines, but it's not the time now - plus, important is this is working for others, and not for me, am not giving two dimes on Julia :laughing:

[valeriupredoi]

no need to dig deeper - this one runs fine on DKRZ/Levante out of the box, the issues above are user-related :man_facepalming:
