Having trouble installing the PortAudio package

Unfortunately that also didn’t work. I get this error again:

ERROR: failed to fetch from https://github.com/JuliaAudio/PortAudio.jl, error: GitError(Code:ERROR, Class:SSL, SSL error: 0xffff8880 - SSL - A fatal alert message was received from our peer)

Wow, it worked for me

Oh yeah, whoops, I forgot it’s not registered anymore. @CoffeeTurtle1 can you add other packages from git URLs?

Also @giordano is that the URL you used or did you use the full git url (https://github.com/JuliaAudio/PortAudio.jl.git) (with the .git at the end)?

I just tried to install a different package from a git URL and it failed with the same error. :frowning:

I don’t have the problem in Julia v1.2.

Sounds maybe similar to this issue - are you behind some kind of firewall? What OS (and distribution, if Linux) are you on?

Maybe @fredrikekre, @StefanKarpinski, or @kristoffer.carlsson has some pointer to what could cause this error?

I am on Manjaro Linux. I don’t think I am behind a firewall, though I am not sure. Unfortunately, the fixes in the linked issue did not work.

The command I posted here is the command I copied from the command line after I had verified that it worked for me

I still cannot figure out how to fix this problem. I get the same error when I try to install any package from github.

Hmm, I’m on regular Arch and @giordano’s suggestion worked for me. How did you install Julia?

I followed the instructions from https://julialang.org/downloads/platform.html#generic-binaries. And downloaded the official generic binaries.
