Hi all, I just fired up Julia for the first time. My goal is to use the [JEMSS](https://github.com/uoa-ems-research/JEMSS.jl) package for research purposes. However, as I try to install it with

```julia
pkg> add https://github.com/uoa-ems-research/JEMSS.jl

```

Cgl\_jll, Cbc\_jll, Cbc and JEMSS fail to install. After running Pkg.precompile() I get these stacktraces:

```julia

My computer runs Fedora 35. I installed Julia 1.7.2 first via dnf, after reading some complaints about these package managers I removed Julia and the .julia folder and downloaded and installed the tar.gz from this website. On this clean install I tried to install JEMSS.

It seems that the main error is _LoadError: InitError: could not load library “/home/jasperbos/.julia/artifacts/e54c61de2448715375d627cc2deffc91d4a7815b/lib/libClp.so”_  
_libdmumps.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory_. However, this file does exist.

Any help to fix this or to increase my understanding is highly appreciated.

Can you open an issue in Cbc.jl please? I likely need to do something similar to [Bump version of Clp\_jll that we support by odow · Pull Request #133 · jump-dev/Clp.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/jump-dev/Clp.jl/pull/133).

Try `add Clp_jll@100.1700.601` in the package manager, then restart Julia.

P.s. hi from Auckland. I’ll fix this tomorrow morning.

That worked like a charm @odow, I can now install and run JEMSS. Thanks for your swift response, especially at your hour. I will open an issue in cbc.jl as you requested. Good luck with the fix!

I just made [Update to Cbc\_jll dep to fix Clp\_jll compatibility with MUMPS by iamed2 · Pull Request #195 · jump-dev/Cbc.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/jump-dev/Cbc.jl/pull/195), matching the Clp change (Cbc\_jll pulls in the correct Clp\_jll)

> I can now install and run JEMSS

Great! But which versions is it installing? The first step is probably to update everything to be compatible with JuMP 1.0.
