Hi all,

This might be a really silly question…

I have met an error in install Quantile regression packages [https://github.com/vincentarelbundock/QuantileRegression.jl](https://github.com/vincentarelbundock/QuantileRegression.jl)

```julia

Looks like the package isn’t registered yet. Try `Pkg.clone("https://github.com/vincentarelbundock/QuantileRegression.jl")` instead.
