Another problem with Julia 1.11.1

General Usage
1

I have freshly updated Julia to 1.11.1 but, like others, I am getting in trouble.
Superficially, I would say that my problem is slightly different from what others are reporting. Therefore, I report also my version:

  1. I open Julia via the simple command
julia
  1. if I directly access the package manager I get the following error message
(@v1.11) pkg> Unhandled Task ERROR: ArgumentError: Package REPLExt [e5eb5ef1-03cf-53a7-ae1d-5a66b08e832b] is required but does not seem to be installed:
 - Run `Pkg.instantiate()` to install all recorded dependencies.

  1. the problem disappears if, before accessing the package manager, I simply run
using Pkg

this solution is not good for me because It does not allow me to work in vscode

Any idea?

2

how did you install Julia?

3

I installed it directly via pacman. I always do in this way

4

yeah don’t do it that way, that can easily give you broken Julia

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Julia

install juliaup

5

thanks. I try and let you know the outcome then.

6

Ok, I confirm that in this way the problem is solved. But I still have issues with using vs-code. Therefore I belive that now I am facing a different problem. Should I open a new post or I can continue here?

7

sounds like a different issue.

To conclude this thread, I also solved this second issue: it was just a problem that the Manifest file was outdated. Now everything is working. I marked your first suggestion as the solution because it efficiently solved the first issue. Thanks a lot!
