I’m trying Julia 0.7 and things have been running smoothly so far, but I can’t get `SQLite.jl` to install.
- I run `add SQLite` (after hitting `]` in the REPL) and I get no errors.
- Then I run `using SQLite` and the precompilation fails with “Module Missings not found in current path.”
- I run `add Missings`, again with no errors.
- `using Missings` also returns no errors.
- Running `using SQLite` fails with the same error.
I haven’t filed an issue on `SQLite.jl`’s GitHub, because I’m not sure `SQLite.jl` is the problem and not me.
Thanks for any pointers.

The problem may be with the new package manager (Pkg3), or with `SQLite.jl` (the Julia binding to SQLite),
but would not be with `SQLite` itself.

Whoops, I meant to ask if there was an issue in `SQLite.jl`, or if I was doing something wrong. I edited my question to make that distinction more clear, thanks. Now that you mention it, the issue might be in `Pkg3` but my gut feeling is that the error is in `SQLite.jl`’s packaging.

SQLite.jl uses the `Missings` packages, but doesn’t have it in the `REQUIRE` file. In 0.6 this doesn’t cause a problem if you have `Missings` installed, but in 0.7 the package system is stricter about enforcing it.
If they add `Missings` to the `REQUIRE` file and release a new version, it will get synced to the 0.7 registry and should work.

Thanks, I’ll file a pull request

Ok, I appended `Missings` to the `REQUIRE` file and previous error seems to be resolved. But now `Pkg3` is making the same complaint about `Compat`. I appended `Compat` to `REQUIRE` the same way I appended `Missings`, but the error persists.
It is difficult to find documentation on this, so I’m just assuming that `REQUIRE` was used before 0.7 and `Project.toml` is the specification that will replace it. Maybe `Pkg3` is looking for `REQUIRE` if it doesn’t see a `Project.toml` before we move on to 1.0?
In any case: all the packages specified in either `REQUIRE` or `Project.toml` should be pulled in before the build phase begins, correct? If that assumption is correct, then there should be no reason why Julia should complain of a missing `Compat`.
My process:
- git clone my fork of `SQLite.jl`
- append `Missings` and append `Compat` to `REQUIRE`
- open up a `Pkg3` REPL in the `SQLite.jl` directory
- run `add .`
result: the build.log file says “Module Compat not found in current path”

Do not follow anything that tells you how to set up Julia v0.4. That’s long retired.
