I upgraded to v1.9.3 and couldn't compile the package.

I think try to upgrade to 0.10.15 for UnROOT, and potentially nuke your ~/.julia/compiled folder

upgrade to 0.10.15 for UnROOT, and potentially nuke your ~/.julia/compiled folder

Neither of them worked, but adding the library path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH serves as a workaround.

[Yuan-Ru-Lin]

There is a related issue in OpenSSL.jl, but it suggests add a downgraded version of the package as a dependency to match the version that the system is using, but that constraints lots of other packages' versions. I guess I'll just stay with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH workaround.

Since this is not really related to UnROOT, I guess we can close the issue as not planned. What do you say? @Moelf

[Moelf]

we can, but I'm also happy to learn more about what happened.

Is it failing due to the HTTP-source precompilation in UnROOT.jl itself? and also, are you setting up your environment via things like cvmfs?

This might also be insightful: https://discourse.julialang.org/t/forward-compatibility-and-stability-of-julia-vs-packages/97968/50?u=tamasgal

closing because related to HTTP and CA distributed on old CentOS versions
