PackageCompiler on GLMakie --> display(fig) --> segfault 11 on macos Sonoma 14.6.1

[johnrfrank]

I wrote a toy app that let's you zoom on the Mandelbrot set. It is at https://github.com/johnrfrank/MandelbrotZoom/

and you can run the app like this:

julia --project=MandelbrotZoom MandelbrotZoom/src/MandelbrotZoom.jl

That works just fine. It works because it calls wait(display(fig))

but!

If you compile it like this:

julia -e '''
using PackageCompiler

create_app("MandelbrotZoom", "output", incremental = true)
'''

then you get an executable that almost works... it prints out messages up to where it calls display(fig) and then it does this:

• version of Makie and GLMakie

  [ee78f7c6] Makie v0.21.15
  [e9467ef8] GLMakie v0.10.15

• can you reproduce the bug with a fresh environment ? (]activate --temp; add Makie)

Yes, the segfault happens after compiling with PackageCompiler

• What platform + GPU are you on?

MacBook 2021 Apple M1 Max
macos Sonoma 14.6.1

"3.4.0 Cocoa NSGL Null EGL OSMesa monotonic dynamic"

Looks like a package compiler / Julia issue to me
