Julia
Julia is a high-level, high-performance dynamic language for technical computing. The main homepage for Julia can be found at julialang.org.
Installation
For Julia development on openSUSE, the preferred method to install julia is via juliaup.
It is a version manager like rust's rustup that allows multiple versions of julia to be installed, updated and maintained.
You can install the juliaup tool in two ways:
openSUSE repos (recommended)
This procedure was tested on tumbleweed
user $
sudo zypper in juliaup && juliaup install releaseUpstream
Following the GitHub repository instructions:
user $
curl -fsSL https://install.julialang.org | shUnofficial binaries
Warning: While we also offer unofficial binaries AND follow closely to how it was built upstream EXCEPT with some non-impactful dependencies e.g. MPFR, and Curl, there might be unexpected breakages from time to time. It is recommended to use juliaup.
To install:
This procedure was tested on tumbleweed
user $
sudo zypper in juliaSpecial cases
In the case you have installed both julia and juliaup, please do not run the julialauncher binary from juliaup as it might point to another version of julia and might lead to errors. Always run julia or do update-alternatives (this is already done through install too but you can manually set an alternative julia provider).
