I followed this instruction and got error `CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "julia"...`.  
For long time of googling I found the solution: [https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1703#issue-676231188](https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1703#issue-676231188)

**BE CAREFUL: IT COULD CAUSE DATA LOSS** (All my installed Python packages removed 😭 )

Just run it after installing Julia and all get work!
