Then this should work:

```julia
(@v1.8) pkg> build GR
julia> using Plots
julia> x = 1:10; y = rand(10);
julia> plot(x, y, title = "Two Lines", label = ["Line 1" "Line 2"], lw = 3)

```

If not, search for `libGR` in `~/.julia/artifacts`, delete the corresponding `~/.julia/artifacts/<sha1>`, then run

```julia
(@v1.8) pkg> instantiate
  Downloaded artifact: GR

```

it should download the GR artifact again, you can then retry.

Did you download the official binaries at [Download Julia](https://julialang.org/downloads/) to setup julia ?
