Error exception when updating #1

Closed ararslan closed 10 years ago

ararslan commented 10 years ago

Every time I run Pkg.update() it gives me this message:

ErrorException("failed process: Process(`git --git-dir=/Users/ararslan/.julia/.cache/Stats merge-base 78f5810a78fa8bee684137d703d21eca3b1d8c78 5113ce6044fc554b350ea16f92502f8d6e077a62`, ProcessExited(1)) [1]")

I'm not really sure what it means… Can anyone help? Please let me know if I was supposed to post this somewhere else. I'm new to both GitHub and Julia.

This is because we renamed Stats to StatsBase and then made this new repo for another purpose.

The first thing to try is to run Pkg.rm("Stats") and see how that goes. If that fails, we may need to take slightly more drastic action.

Cool. I ran Pkg.rm("Stats") and then reran Pkg.update() and everything went smoothly. Thanks so much for your help! I did however notice that I got (among others) the following messages:

INFO: Installing Stats v0.1.0
INFO: Downgrading StatsBase: v0.3.5 => 0.2.10

Why would StatsBase be downgraded?
