Hi all,

Not sure if this is a local issue on my machine or something to do with how we’ve put together our `[compat]` section.

Here’s a MWE `Project.toml` of my problem:

```nohighlight
name = "makie_compat"
uuid = "bacbe515-7035-49b6-9f06-df2441d2345e"
authors = [""]
version = "0.1.0"

[deps]
GLMakie = "e9467ef8-e4e7-5192-8a1a-b1aee30e663a"
InteractiveDynamics = "ec714cd0-5f51-11eb-0b6e-452e7367ff84"

[compat]
GLMakie = "0.4"
InteractiveDynamics = "0.15"

```

Trying to instantiate this:

```julia
    Updating registry at `~/.julia/registries/General`
   Resolving package versions...
ERROR: Unsatisfiable requirements detected for package Makie [ee78f7c6]:
 Makie [ee78f7c6] log:

       └─makie_compat [bacbe515] log: see above

```

There are two things than confuse me here.

First, InteractiveDynamics v0.15.1 has Makie v0.14 [set in the `[compat]` section](https://github.com/JuliaDynamics/InteractiveDynamics.jl/blob/eebd521fc1e17b86697925afa1ce26310afe5287/Project.toml#L16), so why does `Pkg` say we’re only looking for `0.13.1-0.13.14`?

Second, if I `dev InteractiveDynamics`, there is no issue:

```julia
makie_compat) pkg> st
     Project makie_compat v0.1.0
      Status `/mnt/turtle/scratch/makie_compat/Project.toml`
  [e9467ef8] GLMakie v0.4.2
  [ec714cd0] InteractiveDynamics v0.15.1 `~/.julia/dev/InteractiveDynamics`

```

Can someone help me understand _why_ this is happening, and if there’s something I can do in `IntereractiveDynamics` to stop this conflict?

Actually, what you see is on the master branch. In the latest tagged version `0.15.1`, Makie v0.14 is not in the compat:

Bah, of course! Thanks. I’ll just push a patch release quickly.
