Can you please check in ~/.julia/environments/testbase/Manifest.toml which package depends on Arpack_jll?

Was this manifest created with Julia v1.3 or later? You’re now using it with Julia v1.1.1, but Arpack v0.4.0 isn’t compatible with that version. And also Arpack_jll won’t work with it, as the error message says

Yes, Manifests created with one version of Julia cannot be used in another Julia version. To fix, run ] instantiate -p to regenerate the Manifest from the Project.

As an aside, this is one of the reasons I don’t like checking in Manifests to git for libraries.

Thanks @giordano for the explanation and @avik for the fix. All working!!

This had been annoying me for some time. :heart:

I do have a very similar problem:
