[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I'll forward here the review I sent you privately.

I want to add that it built ok.  I tried building but
julia-benchmarktools and julia-staticarrays are failing.

Version 0.7.0 works fine and should work both on 1.6 (tested) and 1.5
(untested) [fn:1] so we should apply it before the julia update.


I tried updating StaticArrays, but the build still fails.  I opened a
bug report here [fn:2].

I attached here the patch, if you can please apply it before yours, apply my
suggestions and send the updated patch

[fn:1] https://github.com/JuliaCI/BenchmarkTools.jl/blob/e058ff249215671c196f2c24a0a3f401de27b718/test/TrialsTests.jl#L217
[fn:2] https://github.com/JuliaArrays/StaticArrays.jl/issues/912
