Problem while precompiling Javis

General Usage

For a project, I need my hands on a simple, yet effective SVG/other animation package. Javis, built on top of Luxor, seemed a viable option. However, while trying to install and precompile the package, I received the following error:

I already tried to reinstall the Gtk.jl package, the gdk_pixbuf_jll, and some other basic troubleshooting stuff. The ‘unknown error’ message, is not very helpful… Anyone knows how to fix this error? My versioninfo is the following:
