Thank you for your offer to help, but I am able to find a workaround on my own. However, in case it provides you with information to address the larger issue, I’ve posted it [here](https://gist.github.com/crbinz/22ecc8c932d0ba61b658410d30fd4fe5). Earlier, I also went through and manually searched for upper bounds on requirements, and there were few enough that I was able to verify by hand there were no conflicts.

I’m trying to use the nightly julia build with the same REQUIRE file, and it’s currently building everything, but it seems to have resolved everything successfully, which is good.

_Update_:

```julia
