Can you tell me what’s up with my Julia 1.0.0 installation?

I installed Julia into /usr/share/bin of my fresh KDE Neon install. I updated and reloaded my .bashrc file so I can load Julia from the terminal.

At the Julia command prompt I tried:

using Pkg  
Pkg.add(“Dataframes”)

and I get this…  
Updating registry at `~/.julia/registries/General`  
&nbsp;Updating git-repo `https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General.git`  
ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:

- Dataframes (not found in project, manifest or registry)  
Please specify by known `name=uuid`.

Capital F for DataFrames?

I guess since Julia has the registry information it could (and should) indicate such a potential typo.
