Installation error

[yguill1]

When installing the package, 247 dependencies are pre-compiled. 246 with no issues but one throws a pre-compile error: ImplicitDifferentiation -> ImplicitDifferentiationForwardDiffExt. I have tried on different recent versions of Julia, and on both Win 11 and Ubuntu with the same issue. This appears to make the package unusable.

Thanks for reporting this.

I just checked with MacroModelling 0.1.37, Julia 1.11.2 on Mac in an otherwise empty environment and I also get the precompile error. Nonetheless, I can go on and use MacroModelling irrespective of the precompilation error. Could you check whether it works for you?

FYI: the next release will not throw this precompilation error

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Yes, actually the package does seem to be useable despite the error. However, every time one runs "Using MacroModelling" Julia attempts to pre-compile this one dependency and the same error messages appear. I also get the same pre-compile error on the same function when getting to the estimation stage and adding the Zygote package.

glad to hear it works. I'll close the issue then
