Adding a package in Julia "ERROR The following package names could not be resolved"

When trying to add a package on Julia, I keep getting these message. 

Pkg.add("Taro")
ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:
 * Taro (not found in project, manifest or registry)
Please specify by known `name=uuid`.

The warning only pops up when installing certain packages. I have also tried to use: get glone http://aviks.github.io/Taro.jl/ , but has not worked neither.

Thank you in advance for your help.

The package is registered but doesn't seem to be ready for Julia 1.0.

You can (force) add it from it's github repository. It's located at https://github.com/aviks/Taro.jl. Hence, you can either

] add https://github.com/aviks/Taro.jl

or equivalently

using Pkg
Pkg.add("https://github.com/aviks/Taro.jl")

However, building the package will fail on Julia 1.0. Note that the URL that you mention, http://aviks.github.io/Taro.jl/, is only the packages documentation.
