Hi guys, thank you for the quick reply!
About my version of Distributions:
julia> Pkg.status("Distributions")
- Distributions 0.4.2 master
And, yes, I am building julia from master (the default option, right?). I
tried to update Distributions and I got the following error:
julia> Pkg.checkout("Distributions")
INFO: Checking out Distributions master...
INFO: Pulling Distributions latest master...
WARNING: ArrayViews is fixed at 0.4.1+ conflicting with requirement for

So, I will try to checkout version 0.3 of Julia and see what happens. It
seems that this problem with Cholesky is a very common issue, but so far I
couldn't find a good solution for it in the forums in internet.
Best,
Charles
