I’m getting the following error using Tyler right out of the box. The versions of the packages are…

```julia
(temp) pkg> st
Status `(path)\Project.toml`
⌃ [e9467ef8] GLMakie v0.10.18
⌃ [e170d443] Tyler v0.1.5
⌃ [e9467ef8] GLMakie v0.10.18
⌃ [e170d443] Tyler v0.1.5

```

Is anyone else having issues with this? I believe Makie recently had a big update to its internals and I’m wondering if they are related.

```julia
julia> tyler = Tyler.Map(Rect2f(-0.0921, 51.5, 0.04, 0.025))

It looks to me like you somehow got a really old Makie and Tyler version. Try `]pin Makie@0.23` and see what happens? Tyler is also now on v0.2.3.

Did you notice that the version above is for GLMakie? For Makie, I have

```julia
julia> pkgversion(Makie)
v"0.21.18"

```

```julia
(temp) pkg> pin Makie@0.23

I also tried to update Tyler past v0.1.5, but I had the following mess show up:

Ah yeah, I didn’t notice that when I read the post the first time, hence the edits :D. Yeah I did see the Makie thing, that is a pretty old version from my perspective but it probably dates to this or last year 😃

What’s your Julia version by the way? Looks like XML\_jll is restricting NetCDF\_jll to an old version that is incompatible with current GDAL…

My Julia version is 1.11.5. Is it possible for the restriction on XML\_jll to come from a systemimage I have loaded to use this Interpretable AI package: [Home · Documentation](https://docs.interpretable.ai/stable/)?

Very possible yes. You should probably try without the sysimage..

Trying without the sysimage got things working! I just wish I understood more about how sysimages interact with the rest of julia. Thanks for the help!

A sysimg is basically a bunch of code baked into a Julia session. Typically this code comes from some packages. In that case you have essentially frozen that environment and baked into Julia to improve startup times. Once started, you can of course load additional packages on top (but they won’t be saved/backed in unless you dump a new sysimg after loading). However, since in Julia you can only load a package once, using a sysimg impacts the package resolution of all further packages. You effectively pinned the versions of the packages in the sysimg.

That’s really all a sysimg is: An environment of pinned/fixed packages baked into Julia to speed up the startup.
