Hi! I’m new to Julia and I was trying to install the package “Distributions”. After running `Pkg.add("Distributions")`, I got the following error
```julia
Resolving package versions...
Unable to automatically install 'CompilerSupportLibraries' from '/Users/xxx/.julia/packages/CompilerSupportLibraries_jll/bjj0c/Artifacts.toml'
```
Can anyone help me with it? Thanks a lot!

I meet the same problem with Julia 1.4 by add SymPy

Let’s try to debug the issue:
```julia
]add https://github.com/giordano/DebugArtifacts.jl
using DebugArtifacts
debug_artifact("CompilerSupportLibraries")
```
**NOTE** : this will _not_ fix anything, it’ll just make it clearer what’s the underlying problem

I had the same issue with a fresh installation of julia 1.4.
This is the message I get

Interesting…
I just got another hash mismatch

Thanks for your reply!
I tried
```julia
using Pkg
Pkg.add("Distributions")
```
again today, all of a sudden, it works. I have no idea what happened. I didn’t do anything to fix it.

Sorry for the late reply. I am running this on a cluster and I wanted to install also Julia 1.3.1 on it to see if the same error appears there, and I do get the same error.
Here is some information:

Maybe this issue is because of the cluster?

Any chance to use v1.4.0 instead?

Well, you were having problems also with 1.4.0 above. What file system are you using? Do you have a special umask?

I am not sure. Probably this is related to the fact that this is a cluster, and the installation is shared, but I am trying to add packages for my user.
Is there a standard solution in this case? Maybe I need to install a separate julia for my user?

I’m not sure that’s a problem by itself. The installation of the artifacts is failing to get the expected git tree sha when unpacking the content of the tarball, even though the hash of the tarball is the one expected (it would have failed before, it this wasn’t the case). The function which computes the git tree sha may be having some troubles to do its job, but I have no idea why. Particular umasks or filesystems have been responsible for some problems in the past, but in Julia 1.4 all of theme should have been fixed

What kind of filesystem is this being installed onto?

I am not sure who to check this (not an expert). I am running this on cluster, and I do not want to play with things too much. Can you tell me how to check it?
