coxackie [1] filed a deletion request for julia-workarounds [2]: I am the maintainer of this "package". It was created in order to help with some problems that the community julia package had in installing certain julia packages (for example, Arpack). These issues have been now resolved, so there is no purpose for this workaround. I kindly ask you to delete it.
