<p dir="auto">A few days ago I came across the following problem and to the conclusion that it was a bug.</p>
<p dir="auto">After adding the package "ImageView" the command "sin(BigFloat(3))" can only be executed with an error message (see screenshot).</p>
<p dir="auto">Affected is Julia 1.2/1.3 RC3 and the current nightly version.</p>
<p dir="auto">The error can be reproduced on my Windows 10 system (Core-i3 4 GByte RAM - Developer-Mode) as often as I want, even if I have completely reinstalled Windows.<br>
It is noticeable that after 1 out of 10 attempts to uninstall Julia and reinstall, no error occurred.</p>
<p dir="auto">Also with the installation on another computer it worked immediately error free.</p>
<p dir="auto">I already reported this to a member of JuliaImages/ImageView.jl (timholy) and he advised me to report this as a Julia bug.
