General Usage

Hi All!
I’m novice user. I tried to install “AbstractAlgebra” on julia version 1.0.2.
I followed instaruction but got:

julia> Pkg.add(“AbstractAlgebra”)

The same problem with Nano:

I’m running julia on ubuntu 18

Thank you in advance

I don’t think this is related to AbstractAlgebra or Nemo. Looks more like a problem related to the package manager. What is the output of Pkg.status()?

Thank you!
Later at night I accidentally found solution:
Pkg.add(“SparseArrays”)
