[POSSIBLE REGRESSION] DataFrames.jl Currently Failing on Nightly?

[TheCedarPrince]

Hello DataFrames.jl maintainers,

@Jay-sanjay and I were working recently with DataFrames.jl and noticed a failing test suite within our CI pipeline. After scrutinizing the test suite, we realized that the suite was failing due to an error in DataFrames.jl on nightly. Here is some information about this problem -- has the been seen before and/or fixed yet?

Version of DataFrames.jl: v1.6.1
Version of Julia: Julia Version 1.12.0-DEV.1207
Nightly Commit from Julia: JuliaLang/julia@4633607
Build Architectures That Are Failing: Windows-latest, Ubuntu-latest

Where the error occurred in our CI pipeline: https://github.com/JuliaHealth/OMOPCDMPathways.jl/actions/runs/10873471645/job/30169617952?pr=63#step:6:260

Error message in pipeline:

This should be fixed on master, #3459 removes the REPL dependency, which was causing precompilation issues.

Is nightly working for you @TheCedarPrince ?

I plan to make a release soon.

[TheCedarPrince]

Hey @bkamins and @pdeffebach, as of testing on JuliaLang/julia@44bef0d, DataFrames.jl is back working again! Quickfix on the Julia side then!

Thank you!
