Hello,  
I am trying to paralleize something but I can’t add Floops.

```julia
pkg> add Floops.jl
ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:
 * Floops (not found in project, manifest or registry)

```

I deleted the registry using:

> (@v1.7) pkg\> registry rm General

but to no avail. Can someone please help? Thanks!

Or maybe move to Julia 1.8 (the current release - there isn’t really a reason to use 1.7 for most users):

```julia
(jl_barHTC) pkg> add Floops
ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:
 * Floops (not found in project, manifest or registry)
   Suggestions: FLoops FLoopsBase (...)
