Problems Compiling MKLSparse

New to Julia
1

I’m having some difficulty with MKLSparse. When the package is precompiling, it throws the following error:


```ERROR: The following 1 direct dependency failed to precompile:

MKLSparse

Failed to precompile MKLSparse [0c723cd3-b8cd-5d40-b370-ba682dde9aae] to "C:\\Users\\pmcfarla\\.julia\\compiled\\v1.11\\MKLSparse\\jl_9252.tmp".

I’m not very savvy with these things. Hopefully someone can help me to figure out the error.

Could you provide the details of your current enviornment? You can get that from the REPL

Yes. Here’s the output:

But I think I’ve found the problem. Line 11 of interface.jl incorrectly evaluates to “false”:

julia> VERSION
v"1.11.0-rc1"

julia> VERSION >= v"1.11"
false

I think that line should be changed as follows:

julia> VERSION >= v"1.11-"
true

Only problem now is that I don’t know how to alter the code and use the updated package.
