Julia Language

luflarois · April 19, 2025, 1:40pm

I did install Julia Language on my laptop. Inside Julia language I Try to install the package “Plots”. But it failed on compile with an error in curl’s library:

LoadError: InitError: could not load library "libcurl.so.4"

Looking in /usr/lib the library is there.

lufla@petara ~> ls /usr/lib/libcurl*
lrwxrwxrwx    - root 10 abr 13:07  /usr/lib/libcurl.so -> libcurl.so.4.8.0
lrwxrwxrwx    - root 10 abr 13:07  /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4 -> libcurl.so.4.8.0
.rwxr-xr-x 893k root 10 abr 13:07  /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.8.0

And the path to library is correct.

I don’t know what is happenning. But some others packages works fine. (But I don’t know if they uses the curl library).

Does anyone know the solution?

(Tip: the same problems dont occurs in debian linux)

Did you ask / search on https://discourse.julialang.org/ ?

I think you mean “Plots.jl” and not plots.

I assume that you have installed the julia package from the extra-repo. If so, this package is compiled against system libraries and is therefore unsupported by upstream. While it may be suitable for basic usage, it is incompatible with external packages (or their dependents) which rely on Julia’s bundled versions of its dependencies.

Maybe, try to remove julia:

sudo pacman -Rs julia

and install the julia-bin package from the AUR:

paru -S julia-bin

julia-bin is the official binary release from julialang.org and should work w/o issues.

Hi.

I removed the julia. I did try reinstall the oficial version from AUR. The installation was OK. But, again, when I try to install Plots package, failed the compilation:
