PackageCompiler broke my julia installation :/

chelseas commented 4 years ago

Was trying to create a sysimage with all of my many dependencies for my project. It worked successfully (see below) but then the next time I tried to start a julia repl, it failed with the following error:

julia> packages  = [:Flux, 
                   :Intervals, 
                   :IterTools,

If you'd like to see it, my test_precompile.jl file is attached. test_precompile.jl.zip

Wish I could give the output of versioninfo() but I can't start julia. It's version 1.4.? and I'm running on macos Catalina.

@chelseas Please, in the future consider use

(@v1.5) pkg> activate .
(@v1.5) pkg> add "Package1"
julia> using Pkg; Pkg.activate("")

isolate environment before to test.

replace_default is not recommended and will probably get removed (https://github.com/JuliaLang/PackageCompiler.jl/pull/546). Since issues with it are known, I'll close this.
