BinaryProvider.jlis an old package which doesn't work in newer versions of Julia and more crucially on new hardware (e.g. Apple Silicon): https://discourse.julialang.org/t/build-thinkjulia-fails-on-windows-10-because-unable-to-open-libllvm/86736.This PR uses
Gdbm_jll.jl, which is the modern way of dealing with binary dependencies. The downside is that it requires Julia v1.3 (which at this point is almost 3-year old and the LTS nowadays is v1.6), the upside is that this has a chance of actually working on newer versions of Julia and new hardware.Note that I couldn't test this package since it has no tests at all:
