V1.6 Package manager issue

General Usage

To start from the simplest, have you followed the suggestion in the FAQ about updating the version of Julia?

If the problem is a corrupted registry, that won’t help, of course, and then @giordano’s suggestion may be the simplest. It’s safe unless you had tweaked your General registry to make it different from GitHub - JuliaRegistries/General: The official registry of general Julia packages

I don’t know why you keep blaming Pkg, but that’s not the issue here. Standard libraries that are in v1.6 but not in v1.5 are the problem, because Pkg doesn’t know how to install those packages. Which is what I already said above.

The only problem of Pkg is not providing more meaningful error messages
