With the following

```julia
using BandedMatrices, Colors, Distributions,
    GLMakie, Infiltrator, Intervals, Images,
    JuMP, LinearAlgebra, Parameters, OSQP,
    Random, SparseArrays, StaticArrays,
    StatsBase, StructArrays, Test, Unitful

```

I get circular dependencies:

> [Info: Precompiling CameraCalibration [e662ac77-834d-4ca4-99a7-fdbe701cf46d]  
> ┌ Warning: Circular dependency detected.  
> │ Precompilation will be skipped for dependencies in this cycle:  
> │ ┌ FilePathsBase → FilePathsBaseTestExt  
> │ └─ FilePathsBase → FilePathsBaseMmapExt  
> │ Precompilation will also be skipped for the following, which depend on the above cycle:

> │ GLMakie

> └ @ Pkg.API.Precompilation ~/.julia/juliaup/julia-1.10.8+0.x64.linux.gnu/share/julia/stdlib/v1.10/Pkg/src/precompilation.jl:584

This error makes the time to startup very long.

I cannot reproduce this issue using these packages in a clean environment with ` --startup-file=no`. Are you using other packages in your `~/.julia/config/startup.jl` file?

good catch

```julia
import Pkg, REPL
using Revise

```

I updated the packages and this problems resolved itself.

Thanks you.
