Installing CSV on Julia 0.6.x

I am getting the following warning when precompiling the package CSV:

julia> using CSV
INFO: Precompiling module CSV.
WARNING: static parameter R does not occur in signature for catvaluetype at /home/ufechner/.julia/v0.6/CategoricalArrays/src/value.jl:52.
The method will not be callable.

I get this warning after doing a completely clean install, before adding CSV nothing else was installed.

Output of Pkg.status():

Any idea?

Digging out my old copy of Julia v0.6, I saw:

julia-0.6> using CSV
INFO: Precompiling module CSV.

julia-0.6>

but:

  • CategoricalArrays 0.3.11

So perhaps you’ll have to go backwards in time for CategoricalArrays…

Should now be fixed, see https://github.com/JuliaData/CategoricalArrays.jl/issues/165.
