Precompiling Rmath error

[devmotion]

That seems to be a problem with Rmath. It seems its binary artifact was not downloaded/installed correctly. So I assume it will fail with the same error message when you try julia> using Rmath (possibly you have to install it explicitly first if it's not a direct dependency of your environment yet). I don't know what's the best way to fix such issues, maybe try to remove the artifacts folder in the error message (ie, "F:***.julia\artifacts\8c1c1529ea289add57db6b790a3039ba491acdce/").

Yes, this problem is actually a problem with the Rmath package. If this dependency is gone, will the function of generating Gaussian random numbers still work?

[devmotion]

Yes, Rmath is only used for e.g. (log)pdfs and (log)cdfs of some special distributions for which no (sufficiently accurate) Julia implementation exists yet. But a broken Rmath installation means that everything that depends on it will be broken, so fixing your installation would still be best.

I've transferred the issue to Rmath.jl as it is not an issue with Distributions.jl but rather with Rmath.jl (or, even more precisely, its binary artifacts it seems).

Thank you very much for your generous help, and may all the codes work as expected.
