Error: julia: failed

[staticfloat]

What happens when you try to just run julia?

I get the julia repl. I've installed and been working on IJulia successfully today, but was just worried about the failed tests.

That...... is really weird. What happens if you type this into the REPL:

cd(joinpath(JULIA_HOME,"../share/julia/test"))                           
push!(ARGS,"all")
include("runtests.jl")

Interesting...this

I should add, that is the error message I got for the tests when I installed it earlier. I thought the error was because I installed without the --HEAD flag, so I did brew rm julia and reinstalled with the flag, leading to the current issue.

Hmmm. That's not very encouraging. @ViralBShah @dmbates any idea what this means:

I think I've solved parts of this problem; you need to pass --HEAD to brew test when you've built a HEAD version of julia now:

$ brew test -v --HEAD julia

This was not the case before. I've updated the docs accordingly. I still don't know what your ARPACKException(-9999) is though.
