I am using Julia 1.2 on Fedora 31.
When I tried to update Julia packages today, I got this error message:

This looks alot like a stack that was happening on Arch/Manjaro. I believe the issue was a bad build or package. It was fixed in the next update. You should probably raise an issue with Fedora and use the official build until they fix it.

It’s annoying, I know.
