Description Philip Nystromer 2015-09-08 10:50:40 UTC

The latest version of Julia in the Portage tree is dev-lang/julia-0.3.0

I get runtime errors when trying to set up a plot

The answer to my post on julia-users forum indicates the source of the problem:
( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/julia-users/kbWAGtpVtH0 )

"0.3.0 is a year out of date, you should update to 0.3.11. Depending which BLAS implementation is being used there, you probably need to add USE_BLAS64=0 when you build. On master when you set USE_SYSTEM_BLAS we now default to USE_BLAS64=0 for non-MKL BLAS implementations."

It would be superb if version julia-0.3.11 could be added to the Portage tree as soon as possible.

julia-0.4.3 is now in the tree (released December 2015). Please test and reopen if necessary.
