So after many experiments, it seems the problem in my case is running julia

- from `/opt/julia` - does not work,
- from `/home/julia` - works
- from `/opt/julia` on a clean virtual machine - works!
- from `/opt/julia` on another physical linux machine - does not work!

Anyway, thanks to all of you for your time!
