I see that the problem is known and I had seen it before but from the
warning message it appears that it prevents precompilation ahead of
time.  This is a real trip back to TTFX for GLMakie and others...

Does anyone know a work around?

If you use Julia 1.11, this is fixed.

For operational reasons, I am using LTS.
