Certain packages do not precompile in Julia Docker

Cheers,

My docker container uses several packages and ran smoothly up to the point I added package ImageInTerminal to the environment. Apparently, the container needs an artifact file that is not being pulled/created. Error message follows below. Any hint is appreciated, as well as a brief explanation of what an artifact is. Thanks in advance.

Julia Docker based on Linux Alpine misses the package for compilation. Using a Debian version instead, such as bookworm, is a safer path.

You didn’t mention before you were using the Apline image, but you’re likely running into Problems with musl's ldso on 1.6 · Issue #40556 · JuliaLang/julia · GitHub
