Weird `ERROR: LoadError: ArgumentError: Platform `riscv64-linux-gnu-libgfortran5` is not an officially supported platform` when loading package

General Usage
1

I tried running my package on a compute I haven’t used for two weeks:

using Catalyst

but got a weird error I do not understand:

[ Info: Precompiling Catalyst [479239e8-5488-4da2-87a7-35f2df7eef83] (cache misses: include_dependency fsize change (4), wrong dep version loaded (4), wrong source (4), dep missing source (2), mismatched flags (4))

This did update some stuff. But when I tried again using Catalyst in the first environment (after restarting Julia) I still got the same error.

Is your Operating System running on RISC-V? Check your ISA using below command in Linux terminal.

uname -m

Then you have an older version of JLLWrappers in some other environment. You should have 1.7.0 everywhere, if you somehow happen to load a previous version you get that issue.

Of course not, otherwise they wouldn’t get that error in the first place.

Same issue here, I am using MacOS M3, and updating the global environment was not helping, I fixed this error by adding JLLWrappers 1.7.0 in the global environment.

What is this, is this different from the default environment you updated?

Thanks everyone! Yes, going through all environments and checking that JLLWrappers was updated worked.

I had a folder “folder_lower” with my environment. I had updated JLLWrappers in that and my default Julia Environment. However, “folder_lower” was in a folder “folder_upper” which had an old version of it. Updating JLLWrappers for that environment as well solved it.

Thanks a lot!
