Hi,
I cannot install new packages with error:
```julia
curl_multi_socket_action: 8
@ Downloads.Curl /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/julia-1.6.3/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.6/Downloads/src/Curl/utils.jl:36
```
It’s bothering me. How can I fix this problem?
Julia Version: 1.6.3
OS: openSUSE TW
Sincerely,
Lu

Hi,
we probably need more information to diagnose this
all the way from `julia> ]` to `julia>`
or everything from the `julia>import Pkg; Pkg.add(` to `julia>`

I believe this bug might be fixed in 1.6.4 or 1.6.5. Make sure you use the latest version, bugs are fixed all the time!

Hi,
I have tried both these two ways to install packages. They demonstrate the same problem.

Only these two lines error message.
```julia
curl_multi_socket_action: 8
@ Downloads.Curl /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/julia-1.6.3/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.6/Downloads/src/Curl/utils.jl:36
```
No more information I got.

This is probably the one you need:
[64-bit (glibc)](https://julialang-s3.julialang.org/bin/linux/x64/1.7/julia-1.7.2-linux-x86_64.tar.gz)
They can be unzipped in your $HOME and don’t need root (although I put mine in /opt )

I think I had that error before, and I ended up erasing the Julia installation (and the .julia directory), and installing it again.
