Try `build NCDatasets` (in pkg-mode)

Not sure. `build NetCDF_jll`?

BTW `Oceananigans` installs fine on my linux machine with 1.6, and the file `~/.julia/artifacts/0a7f440ba143b238cc3dd0def2956d34d76755f3/lib/libnetcdf.so" exists on my machine.

Hm okay thanks for testing anyway. Do you know what exactly `1 dependency errored` means? Does it mean Oceananigans?

I would suspect that it is a dependency. But not so helpful… Judging by your first post is is one of the two I suggested to re-build.

Could it be that I broke something with `git stash`? I wanted to pull the newest updates from the repository, without committing my changes, so I ran git stash.  
I’m asking bc that was something I did the first time today.

If you don’t have objections to this, you could try to remove `~/.julia`. That can solve a lot of cache-related problems.

It can also be that the package from which you’re loading the environment is broken ([https://github.com/JuliaLang/Pkg.jl/issues/2381](https://github.com/JuliaLang/Pkg.jl/issues/2381)). But, given that you said the package works, that’s probably not it.

</div>

What’s the value of the environment variable `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`? Inside Julia run

```julia
ENV["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]

```

It’d be useful if you could run `strace` on julia and find out what file is missing. Also, how did you install Julia?

That won’t do much: mbedtls comes with julia in v1.6, so the error is much earlier than NCDatasets

I am getting this one:

But versioninfo() doesnt give me any info about the environment at all. So I guess something has been broken there?

```julia

I installed Julia through pacman with `pacman -S julia`

So you are using Arch Linux? I strongly recommend to use [`aur/julia-bin`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/julia-bin) instead. The fact you’re using the package from Arch Linux repositories is very likely the culprit here

Ok I reinstalled from the binary and now it actually seems to work. Thank you!

To be more precise, this was the package I had to choose instead of the community one.
