bug#58789: julia 1.6.7 Pkg.add fails with curl_multisocket error

[John Biechele-Speziale via Bug reports for GNU Guix]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 530 bytes --]

After installing GuixSD and julia on the fairly minimal installation,
running julia and entering the following command ’] add DrWatson’
fails with the following error: “ curl_multi_socket_action: 8”.
Oddly enough, some packages work, such as LibCURL, but most fail.

The failure seems to occurs at the “resolving pkg versions” stage.

I’m a bit new to guix and mailing lists in general, so if there’s
anything else I need to provide to help reproduce the bug, please
let me know and I’ll send it ASAP.

The name is “Guix System” (GuixSD is an old name and not use anymore). :-)

I can reproduce this on foreign distro too.

With the update of Julia to 1.8.3 I have tested installing DrWatson
using the Julia REPL and it now works.
