Cannot start Julia v1.5.0 on ubuntu 18.04, but v1.0.4

Viewed 134

I was attempting to install Julia 1.5.0 on Ubuntu 18.04. I downloaded the 64-bit GPG from https://julialang.org/downloads/

and I followed instructions from Linux and FreeBSD from

https://julialang.org/downloads/platform/

I have a directory named julia-1.5.0 set up in my ~ directory and I changed in my ~/.profile to set up the PATH variable like the instructions say, but whenever I type julia into terminal, I startup v1.0.4. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Perhaps I am accidently using the linux build of julia?

Please show us your PATH as the new directory must come before the existing one, i.e add the output of echo $PATH to your question.

Also, try which julia resulting on my machine in /usr/bin/julia which is correct as I have no other version.
