Julia 1.6.1 is currently in conda-forge and Julia 1.6.2 is on its way.
There’s another pull request proposing to add a Conda specific JULIA_DEPOT location, and I was wondering if anyone else had any thoughts on managing Julia in a Conda environment:
https://github.com/conda-forge/julia-feedstock/pull/87
The proposal there perhaps extends beyond conda-forge installed Julia and may also be applicable to using official Julia builds with a conda environment.
