Hello,
I am trying to use the Julia package Plots.jl in Python3.11 via the JuliaCall package on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS. (Actually, I try to use another package that is developing a local community but I’m suspecting Plots.jl causes this problem.)
However, I am encountering an InitError when I try to use the Plots package. Here is the error message I am getting:
juliacall.JuliaError: InitError: could not load library "/home/user/.julia/artifacts/648a32a349aac06f19b6bfed47f0b822b4ef28c3/lib/libgio-2.0.so"
/home/user/.julia/artifacts/648a32a349aac06f19b6bfed47f0b822b4ef28c3/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_dir_unref
This error occurs when I try to execute the following line in Python:
jl.seval("using Plots")
I am using the JuliaCall package to create a Julia environment in Python, and I am trying to use the Plots package within this environment. I have successfully added the Plots package to my Julia environment using the Pkg module in Julia.
I tried to reinstall Julia and re-run precompile after deleting ‘.julia’.
Also, I tried to change the ENV["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="" on python scripts:
jl.seval("ENV[\"LD_LIBRARY_PATH\"]=\"\"")
jl.seval("print(ENV[\"LD_LIBRARY_PATH\"])")
jl.seval("using Plots")
But it did not change this variable to "" so, it did resolve the problem.
I am not sure why this error is occurring, and I would appreciate any help or guidance on how to resolve this issue.
Thank you in advance for your help.
