I registered a new version of a [package](https://github.com/johncwok/CategoricalTimeSeries.jl), and the pull request was merged but when I install the package via ``Pkg.add```, the old version is installed. Why is this so and how can I fix it?

There might be some compatibility conflict holding it back. What happens if you do `add CategoricalTimeSeries@1.1`?

Oh you are right! There is a restriction on a `[compat]` concerning another package of mine called `MotifRecognition`. What puzzles me is that this package is no longer required in the latest version of `CategoricalTimeSeries.jl`, and is consequently not mentionned in the `project.toml` file. How can it be that it is causing issues?

Do you have the new version in your copy of the General registry? Cf. [General registry delays, and a workaround](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/general-registry-delays-and-a-workaround/67537)

That’s not the issue—the new version is in the registry. It also installs v1.1.0 in a fresh environment. There’s some conflict with some other package that’s in the environment.

I just noticed that in a clean environment, the package installs correctly. Thank you for your help! I thought I had deleted all problematic packages in my main environment but apparently I didn’t.

I wish the resolver output was actually intelligible but I can never understand what it’s telling me.
