This is definitely a stumbling block that needs ironing out. I followed your instructions but unfortunately not even uninstalling all the packages in my env helped in Julia 1.5.4. However using the related issue here [Getting an error with the Colors package - #2 by fredrikekre](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/getting-an-error-with-the-colors-package/44766/2) I could fix it after deleting the entire `.julia/registries` folder and its contents, then exiting and restarting Julia.
