Your comments are indeed useful but I don’t understand many parts of `build.jl` so I really don’t know how to fix it.

It seems the problem is here:

```julia
        # Download and install binaries
        install(url, tarball_hash; prefix=prefix, force=true, verbose=verbose)

```

For example, I tried to write the path directly to the install method

`install(tarball_path="/Users/davidbuchaca1/.julia/packages/ZMQ/ABGOx/deps/usr/downloads/ZMQ.x86_64-apple-darwin14.tar", force=true, verbose=verbose)`

but the method does not exist (with the arguments I provide)

```julia
│ Closest candidates are:
│ install(!Matched::AbstractString, !Matched::AbstractString; prefix, tarball_path, force, ignore_platform, verbose) at /Users/davidbuchaca1/.julia/packages/BinaryProvider/TcAwt/src/Prefix.jl:277

```

And I can’t get a help for install

````julia
help?> install
search: instances ignorestatus InvalidStateException

Couldn't find install
Perhaps you meant findall or instances
  No documentation found.

  Binding install does not exist.```
