Given some of the information (I had no patience for going through the whole traceback by calls related to rbg colors pointed to something related to color) I tried changing the value associated to a color (:gray in the line argument) to the values :grey, :black, and even getting rid of such portion, and the error does not show up anymore in all three cases.
Don't understand if this is something related to julia 0.5.0, jupyter, or even emacs. The latter seems less viable since the error shows up both in emacs using ein (latest version installed from MELPA) and firefox.
I'm taking julia programming in coursera so I'm very interested in a possible explanation for this behavior.
