Precompiling NLSolversBase for Julia v 1.0.0 fails.

[amit112amit]

I am trying to use the OnceDifferentiable() method from Julia v1.0.0. I get the following error:

What about ] status?

[amit112amit]

Sorry I did not include it the first time. I have included it in the top comment now. Thank you for maintaining this code.

[pkofod]

So I'm not exactly sure why, but one of your packages seem to be holding back ForwardDiff (that NLSolversBase depends on) to a version before 0.8.4 which is where ForwardDiff fixed a lot of v0.7/1.0 stuff. So you need to find the package that puts a bound on ForwardDiff somehow.

Please try to get help on discourse or slack if this problem persists.
