I installed julia using

```julia
sudo apt install julia

```

realising this was version 1.0.3 and not finding a binary for 1.5.3 I followed the steps for compiling Julia at [JuliaBerry: Compiling Julia](https://juliaberry.github.io/compile.html).

This started fine but then received an error

/home/pi/Applications/julia/src/gc.c:999: undefined reference to `\_\_atomic\_load\_8’

along with other error messages all related to `\_\_atomic\_load\_8’. I am wondering what I should do next?

There are instructions here for using Docker to get an up to date Julia binary for Raspbian: [https://github.com/Julia-Embedded/jlcross#get-binary-from-container](https://github.com/Julia-Embedded/jlcross#get-binary-from-container)
