I upgraded from 0.4.5 to 0.4.6 today and did a little work with no issue.
Then I ran Pkg.update() and apparently updated the cache of a few packages.
When Pkg.update got to Conda, everything seemed to hang. After letting that
run about 40 minutes I killed the Julia process, restarted, and tried
Pkg.update again. The first package it tried to update was DataStreams, and
that also hung for a while. I killed that process, started a new one, and
Pkg.resolve() ran for a half hour without giving any output. I thought
maybe there was a problem with Conda and I should remove and reinstall it,
and Pkg.rm("Conda") did work, but everything else just hangs indefinitely.
I tested on my other computer (also running Windows but still on Julia
0.4.5) and it updated all its needed packages successfully.
Thoughts? Bug worth trying to chase down or just uninstall Julia, nuke the
.julia folder, and reinstall?
Thanks,
Evan
