Unable to use "plots"

iAnkiit · February 18, 2022, 8:25am

I am getting this error. Failed to precompile Plots [91a5bcdd-55d7-5caf-9e0b-520d859cae80].

Tried following ways but nothing improved.
Pkg.gc()
Pkg.rm(“Plots”)
Pkg.gc()
Pkg.add(“Plots”)

Someone please help me with this. I am unable to proceed.

Sure.

Looks the same as https://github.com/jheinen/GR.jl/issues/449. The underlying cause appears to be the assumption that https://github.com/jheinen/GR.jl/blob/90afd2a898881d527a526583468c3fd88678156a/src/GR.jl#L36 makes that deps.jl always exists, which might not be the case.

Could you please guide me with syntax, what steps to be perform?

Thanks.

Pkg.build(“Plots”)

using Plots

it worked for me, initially.!
