Pre-compilation does not finish with version 0.18.11 about plotlyjs.jl

[beorostica]

This appears to be a duplicate of #473. The issue is described in https://discourse.julialang.org/t/plotlyjs-0-18-11-hangs-when-trying-using-but-only-the-first-time/105636/5.

I am not sure this is the same problem

I am having similar issues on Windows 10-11 and also Ubuntu 22

When adding my package on these machines it gets stuck during the pre-compilation of DashBasePlotlyJSExt (hangs forever).

It was working just fine before Julia 1.10

[BeastyBlacksmith]

That is most likely JuliaPlots/PlotlyKaleido.jl#13

[BeastyBlacksmith]

Please try 0.18.13

Hi, so version 0.18.13 does help with the pre-compilation on Windows, that can be completed now.

However, when "using my_package" it now loads forever (on Windows only). I have to cancel the "using my_package" and relaunch it several times before it is able to actually load the package. This is especially a problem for the CI as because of this it still fails on Windows!

Hope this helps, and thanks for the support

This is the error I get now when trying to use PlotlyJS on windows (after trying to load for 360min):

This should be solved now. See the related comment in #473 (comment) for more details.

Edit: It does not specifically solves this in 0.18.11, you'd need to update to 0.18.13 and make sure that the dependent PlotlyKaleido is at least at version 2.2.4 (which should happen automatically if you install PlotlyJS from now on)
