Pkg.add() bails out

[davidavdav]

Using today's version of julia (0.2.0-prerelease+3791) I can't seem to install packages anymore.

I was told to file an issue... Hereby

julia> Pkg.add("ArgParse")

Please send output of versioninfo(). Also, if you are on Windows, please try latest binaries.

I just did a "git pull" and "make" today, and the problem persevered.

Interesting. This works fine for me on two OSX builds that are very close to yours. (rc1+12, instead of rc1+10)

I hate to recommend this, but perhaps nuking your ~/.julia folder and running Pkg.init() again might be the way forward. Please back-up your ~/.julia directory so that you can compress it and send it to us if this does indeed work. (You could just rename it to ~/.julia2 or something) If your ~/.julia directory is screwed up somehow, we might be able to reproduce the error over here if you send it to us.

Hi,

Thanks, I tried this indeed. This solved the problem, thanks. If you're interested I can send you the offending .julia directory or upload it or whatever.

Thanks,

Yes please! Any way you want to send it to us would be helpful.

Hi,

I hope this makes it to you,

Cheers,

@davidavdav Github emails strip out attachments. You can sent it directly by email to Elliot, or place it on the web somewhere, and add a link to the github issue.

@davidavdav or @staticfloat, can you test if this is fixed now?

[staticfloat]

Unfortunately, I never was able to reproduce the problem, and I never received any files from @davidavdav.

Hi, sorry, still trying to find out how I can send you guys the attachments, but I think I found your email address.

Is this problem solved? This is one of the last open 0.2 issues.
