julia segfault when initializing jlcall
I've encountered an issue on MATLAB 2023b while running jlcall for the first time to install MATDaemon.jl - Julia segfaults. The issue arises from environment variables that MATLAB sets before calling Julia. It appears that inserting the following:
setenv('LD_LIBRARY_PATH','');
on line 541 allows the script to complete, and jlcall to function. I don't think that this is the proper way to resolve this issue, but it works.
Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, issues like this have come up before (see this section in the readme), and I'm not really sure if there is a good general solution. At one point I considered adding a line like setenv('LD_LIBRARY_PATH', ''); to jlcall.m as you have done (I ran into a similar issue), but I figured it was best not to mess with users' environment variables.
I've updated the troubleshooting section of the readme. Based on this MATLAB help centre answer, this seems like a fairly reasonable workaround.
