I’m trying to use code from a (frequently updated) git repository in a Jupyter notebook with Julia 1.3. What’s the best way to do it. Is it still as described here?

> To view the notebooks locally and interact with the contents, use the following commands (requires [IJulia](https://github.com/JuliaLang/IJulia.jl)): [given in the following link](https://github.com/JuliaDiffEq/DiffEqTutorials.jl) Pkg.clone(“[GitHub - SciML/SciMLTutorials.jl: Tutorials for doing scientific machine learning (SciML) and high-performance differential equation solving with open source software.](https://github.com/JuliaDiffEq/DiffEqTutorials.jl)”) using IJulia notebook(dir=Pkg.dir(“DiffEqTutorials”)) But I get the following alerts: Need your guidance. And help Hermes

I just cleared my package cache for the package I’m using (UAI) and now I have this error

````Julia
# Julia code inside jupyter notebook with IJulia 1.3 as kernel
import Pkg
Pkg.add("Primes")
Pkg.add("IterTools")
Pkg.add(Pkg.PackageSpec(url="https://github.com/KULeuven-MAI/UAI.jl"))
using UAI```
`path <path>/.julia/packages/UAI/zyedr for package UAI no longer exists. Remove the package or `develop` it at a new path`
````

I doubted whether to post it here or in the Jupyter Discourse so now it’s both. Help still appreciated. 🙂 [Jupyter with IJulia kernel: how to use github package? - JupyterHub - Jupyter Community Forum](https://discourse.jupyter.org/t/jupyter-with-ijulia-kernel-how-to-use-github-package/2812)

Can you share the `Project.toml` and `Manifest.toml` that this code errors on? You can find the location with `Base.active_project()`. Hopefully you still have it!

Also useful is the feedback you get from `Pkg` when you run the `Pkg` commands.
