Library compatibility issues, in particular with Julia and R.

It's gotten much better over the last year, but I still run into enough problems that I try to keep all of my actual development work on a remote machine.

A few years ago I was using R on OpenBSD. OpenBSD somewhat aggressively removes deprecated features as compared to Linux and macOS. It was really eye-opening to see how bit-rotted some parts of the scientific / numeric ecosystem are. I ended up submitting some trivial PRs deep in the stack for use of system calls that have been deprecated but not removed from Linux for a decade or more.
