Int64 problem in 'matread'

[fsobral]

I'm using julia version 0.4.0-dev+4219 and have just updated MAT by Pkg.update().
When loading file scsd8.mat with the matread("scsd8.mat") command the following error occurs:

julia> vars=matread("scsd8.mat")
ERROR: MethodError: `skip_padding` has no method matching skip_padding(::IOStream, ::Int32,   ::Int32)
Closest candidates are:
  skip_padding(::IO, ::Int64, ::Int32)
 in read_element at /home/fsobral/.julia/MAT/src/MAT_v5.jl:109
 in read_matrix at /home/fsobral/.julia/MAT/src/MAT_v5.jl:310
 in read at /home/fsobral/.julia/MAT/src/MAT_v5.jl:346
 in matread at /home/fsobral/.julia/MAT/src/MAT.jl:109

To solve this problem I've changed Int to Int64 in lines 98 and 101 of file MAT_v5.jl.

I assume you have 32-bit Julia? If so, can you run Pkg.checkout("MAT") and try again?

[fsobral]

Yes, I have 32-bit Julia. I removed the .julia/MAT directory, but now I'm unable to Pkg.add("MAT") again (Pkg.checkout("MAT") did not work). I'll try later.

[fsobral]

Ok. My fault. I've run Pkg.checkout("MAT") and everything worked! Thanks.

Great, thanks.
