Error building packages when startup file is used (v1.0)

Building packages call `startup.jl` with every build

In Julia 1.0.0, every time I try to build a package, the startup script `~/.juli…a/config/startup.jl` is called. If that script imports any package not available in the build environment, the build fails. For instance, if I add `using OhMyREPL` to my `startup.jl`, the build fails with this error: ```julia-repl julia> Pkg.add("Plots") Updating registry at `~/.julia/registries/General` Updating git-repo `https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General.git` Resolving package versions...

My versioninfo: ``` Julia Version 1.0.0 Commit 5d4eaca0c9 (2018-08-08 20:58 UTC) Platform Info: OS: macOS (x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0) CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7360U CPU @ 2.30GHz WORD_SIZE: 64 LIBM: libopenlibm LLVM: libLLVM-6.0.0 (ORCJIT, skylake) ``` PS: Also reported here, to try to find a way not to import `OhMyREPL` when the session is not interactive: https://github.com/KristofferC/OhMyREPL.jl/issues/68

Looks like this will be fixed in the next Julia release v1.0.1.
